Ursodeoxycholate inhibits mast cell activation and reverses biliary injury and fibrosis in Mdr2(−/−) mice and human primary sclerosing cholangitis
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is used to treat biliary disorders; and, bile acids alter mast cell (MC) histamine release. MCs infiltrate Mdr2(−/−) mice liver (model of Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC)). MC-derived histamine increases inflammation, hepatic stellate cell (HSC) ac...
