Use Of Quantitative Modelling To Elucidate The Roles Of The Liver, Gut, Kidney, And Muscle In Ammonia Homeostasis And How Lactulose And Rifaximin Alter This Homeostasis
Humans must eliminate approximately 1M of ammonia per day while maintaining the blood concentration of this potent neurotoxin at a concentration of only about 30 µM. The mechanisms producing such effective ammonia homeostasis are poorly understood by clinicians due to the multiple organs (liver, gut...
