Pathogenetic Mechanism for Hypersecretion of Mucin Glycoprotein in Cholelithiasis

Multiple cholesterol stones are associated with more biliary complications and exhibit more rapid cholesterol nucleation than solitary stones。Secretory or group II phospholipase A I D22文件D2(PLA D 22文件D2-II)levels in gallbladder bile were significantly higher in patients with multiple cholesterol stones than in those with solitary stones or control subjects.Increased biliary PLA I D22 ii D2-II levels in multiple cholesterol stones were associated with a concomitant increase in the protein and hexosamine concentrations as well as gallbladder bile viscosity.Increased PLA锡D22文件D2-II in gallbladder bile may be of pathogenetic importance in patients with multiple cholesterol stones，probably through potentiating gallbladder mucosal inflammation with associated biliary alterations favoring cholesterol crystal formation.Ursodeoxycholate(UDC)decreases biliary levels of various pronucleating proteins，possibly due to its mbremane-protective decreases biliary levels of various pronucleating proteinsLong-te…More rm UDC administration was observed to lower the increased PLA I D22文件D2-II protein mass and mRNA level as well as the PLA I D 22文件D2-V mRNA level in the gallbladders of patients with multiple cholesterol stones，which in turn may be of therapeutic importance in improving the gallbladder mucosal inflammation.Effects of UDC on secretory low molecular weight PLA I D22个D2s as inflammatory mediators may relate to the reported efficacy of UDC treatment in cholesterol gallstone disease.Intrahepatic calculi is characterized by an intractable course and frequent recurrences.Chronic proliferative cholangitis may underlie the complex nature of the disease.PLA I D22 ii D2-II levels were significantly higher in the bile from the stone-containing hepatic ducts than in the ductal bile from gallbladder stone patients.The increased sPLA I D22文件D2 levels were associated with a concomitant increase in prostaglandin E I D22文件D2 and total mucin concentrations.The affected bile ducts showed an increased mRNA level of PLA I D22文件D2-II compared with the ducts from control subjects.In intrahepatic calculi，an enhanced expression of the PLA I D22 ii D2-II may be of pathophysiological significance for the chronic proliferative cholangitis，probably through biliary alterations favoring growth of preexisting stones and even further progressions。Less：Less
