| Abstract | UNLABELLED: The orphan nuclear hormone receptor small heterodimer partner (SHP) regulates the expression of several genes involved in bile acid homeostasis in the liver. Because bile acid toxicity is a major source of liver injury in cholestatic disease, we explored the role of SHP in liver damage induced by common bile duct ligation (BDL). Shp(-/-) mice show increased sensitivity in this model of acute obstructive cholestasis, with greater numbers of bile infarcts and higher mortality than wild-type C57BL/6 mice. This increased sensitivity could not be accounted for by differences in expression of bile acid homeostatic genes 2 or 5 days after BDL. Instead, higher basal expression of such genes, including the key biosynthetic enzyme cholesterol 7alpha hydroxylase (Cyp7A1) and the bile salt export pump, is associated with both an increase in bile flow prior to BDL and an increase in acute liver damage at only 1.5 hours after BDL in Shp(-/-) mice, as shown by bile infarcts. At 3 hours, Cyp7A1 expression still remained elevated in Shp(-/-) with respect to wild-type mice, and the hepatic and serum bile acid levels and total hepatobiliary bile acid pool were significantly increased. The increased sensitivity of mice lacking SHP contrasts with the decreased sensitivity of mice lacking the farnesoid X receptor (FXR; nuclear receptor subfamily 1, group H, member 4) to BDL, which has been associated with decreased intraductal pressure and fewer bile infarcts. CONCLUSION: We propose that differences in acute responses to BDL, particularly the early formation of bile infarcts, are a primary determinant of the differences in longer term sensitivity of the Fxr(-/-) and Shp(-/-) mice to acute obstructive cholestasis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
