The pathobiology of biliary epithelia

Roberts, SK, Ludwig, J, Larusso, NF·1997·Gastroenterology

Abstract

Our understanding of the pathobiology of biliary epithelia is rapidly growing because of a surge of investigative activity. This became possible after suitable experimental models and techniques were developed with which to study cholangiocyte biology. Although the molecular mechanisms of bile formation by cholangiocytes and the role of these cells as a major cellular target in a variety of severe hepatobiliary diseases are currently being investigated, many questions remain unanswered, particularly regarding cholangiocellular functions, both in normal and abnormal conditions. As current experimental models become more refined, scientists with interests as diverse as cell biology and physiology, morphology, pharmacology, immunology, genetics, and oncology can be expected to further clarify the pathobiology of biliary epithelia.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The liver is composed of non-parenchymal cells, which include hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), resident macrophages, endothelial cells (ECs), and cholangiocytes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
