Measurement of intrahepatic bile duct mass (IBDM) in the selected groups of Table 1. TC feeding increased IBDM of BDL rats compared to BDL rats fed bile acid control diet. HAL-induced a decrease in IBDM, a decrease that was prevented by taurocholic acid feeding. Taurocholic acid prevention of HAL-induced decrease in IBDM was blocked by wortmannin treatment. *p<0.05 vs. the corresponding value of BDL rats fed bile acid control diet for 1 week. HAL = hepatic artery ligation IBDM = intrahepatic bile duct mass.
