General description

Sodium taurolithocholate is a bile salt with detergent qualities that give it the ability to solubilize insoluble lipids.

Application

Sodium taurolithocholate has been used in a study to assess factors controlling the gastrointestinal adsorption of petroleum hydrocarbon residues. It has also been used in a study to investigate the decrease in activity of Na+, K+-adenosinetriphosphatase (Na+, K+-ATPase) in rats where cholestasis had been induced.

Biliary pancreatitis is the most common etiology for acute pancreatitis, yet its pathophysiological mechanism remains unclear. Ca(2+) signals generated within the pancreatic acinar cell initiate the early phase of pancreatitis, and bile acids can elicit anomalous acinar cell intracellular Ca(2+)
