The effect of intraduodenal infusion of olive oil, bile, or a mixture of olive oil and bile on pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion, bile flow, and serum immunoreactive secretin levels was studied in dogs. Bile alone had no effect on gastric secretion, but the mixture of bile and olive oil induced prompt, statistically significant gastric secretory inhibition. Bile had the early choleretic effect that would be expected to result from the absorption of bile salts, whereas the bile--olive oil mixture brought about a delayed amd much greater increase in bile flow rates. None of the agents given intraduodenally produced a significant change in the serum secretin level. Intravenous pentagastrin infusion caused a significant increase in rate of bile flow.

Adverse drug reactions (ADR) remain a challenge in modern healthcare, particularly given the increasing complexity of therapeutics. WHO's definition of an adverse drug reaction as a response to a drug that is noxious and unintended and occurs at doses normally used in man for the prophylaxis, diagnosis or therapy of disease, or for modification of physiological function. This definition underscores the importance of monitoring and mitigating unintended drug effects, particularly for widely used medications like valproic acid (VPA).

Cholestasis is a multifactorial hepatobiliary disorder, characterized by obstruction of bile flow and accumulation of bile, which in turn causes damage to liver cells and other tissues. In severe cases, it can result in the development of life-threatening conditions, including cirrhosis and liver cancer. Paeoniflorin (PF) has been demonstrated to possess favourable therapeutic potential for the treatment of cholestasis.

Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 (PFIC2) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by severe intrahepatic cholestasis, which often manifests in infancy with progressive liver dysfunction. We present the case of a 3-month-old infant with a one-month history of jaundice, vomiting, and bloody stools, presenting a unique set of diagnostic challenges. Initial clinical and laboratory findings indicated significant liver dysfunction, prompting further imaging and genetic analysis.

Drug-induced cholestasis (DIC) is a leading cause of drug-induced liver injury post-drug marketing, characterized by bile flow obstruction and toxic bile constituent accumulation within hepatocytes. This study investigates the toxicity associated with intracellular bile acid (BA) accumulation during DIC development. Using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis, we examined intracellular BA concentrations in human precision-cut liver slices (PCLS) following the administration of cyclosporin A and chlorpromazine, both with and without an established BA mixture.
