dc.description.abstractCholesterol available for bile secretion is controlled by a wide variety of proteins that mediate lipoprotein cholesterol uptake and cholesterol transport and metabolism in the liver. From a disease perspective, abnormalities in the transhepatic traffic of cholesterol from plasma into the bile may influence the risk of cholesterol gallstone formation. This review summarizes some recent progress in understanding the hepatic determinants of biliary cholesterol secretion and its potential pathogenic implications in cholesterol gallstone disease. This information together with new discoveries in this field may lead to improved risk evaluation, novel surrogate markers and earlier diagnosis, better preventive approaches and more effective pharmacological therapies for this prevalent human disease.
