Differential regulation of vacuolar H+ -ATPase and Na+/H+ exchanger 3 in rat cholangiocytes after bile duct ligation.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The cholangiocytes lining the intrahepatic bile ducts modify the primary secretion from the hepatocytes. The cholangiocytes secrete HCO (3)(-) into bile when stimulated with secretin in many species, including man. However, in rats, secretin stimulation neither affects biliary HCO (3)(-) concentration nor bile flow, whereas following bile duct ligation (BDL) it induces hypercholeresis with significant increase of NaHCO(3) concentration. We hypothesized that BDL might affect the expression of cholangiocyte H(+) transporters and thereby choleresis, and determined the expression and localization of the 31 kDa vacuolar type H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) subunit and of Na(+)/H(+) exchanger NHE3 in the livers of control and BDL rats by real-time PCR, in situ hybridization, immunoblotting, and immunohistochemistry. In controls, secretin had no effect on bile flow, whereas following BDL, secretin increased bile flow approximately threefold. V-ATPase and NHE3 were expressed in control cholangiocytes showing intracellular and apical distribution, respectively. BDL significantly up-regulated V-ATPase mRNA and protein expression and was associated with redistribution to the apical pole in approximately 60% of the cholangiocytes lining the small bile ductules. In contrast, NHE3 expression was significantly down-regulated by BDL at the mRNA and protein level. The data demonstrate expression of V-ATPase in rat cholangiocytes. BDL-induced down-regulation of NHE3 may contribute to a reduction of Na(+) and HCO (3)(-) reabsorption and thus to their net secretion into bile. Apical localization of V-ATPase in cholangiocytes may indicate its involvement in pH regulation and/or HCO (3)(-) salvage to compensate for NHE3 down-regulation in BDL.
