The new structure proposed for the mixed  micelles present in bile is reviewed, as are the properties of new  synthetic analogues of bile acids. The mechanisms by which bile acids  interact with cell membranes are discussed in order to provide insight  into the hepatotoxic effects of bile acids in cholestatic liver  disease. \u003cbr\u003e  The book further shows the exciting progress in the molecular biology  of bile acid transport by the hepatocyte and enterocyte, and concludes  with a consensus on the use of ursodeoxycholic acid in cholestatic  liver disease and as an adjunct to immunosuppressive therapy after  liver transplantation, and to interferon therapy in chronic viral  hepatitis. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1995-06-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792388807\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 233.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 404.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541625237644,"sku":"9780792388807","price":251.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792388807","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
