  • Title: [Effect of selenium on the bile-forming function of the liver].
    Author: Danik LM.
    Journal: Ukr Biokhim Zh; 1976; 48(4):485-91. PubMed ID: 982619.
    Abstract:
    The paper deals with efficiency of sodium selenite in case of acute damage of the liver in rats as well as with its effect on main functions of the liver in norm and pathology, especially on biligenesis, synthesis and secretion of bile acids, bilirubin and cholesterol. The preparation in doses of 1 and 10 Mg per 100 g of weight is established to produce a normalizing effect of intensity of biliation synthesis and secretion of bile acids, secretion of bilirubin and excretion of cholesterol in the animals with the affected liver. The preparation has a cholagogic effect as well. In the healthy rats sodium selenite increases the intensity of bile secretion, intensifies synthesis and secretion of bile acids and bilirubin. A stimulating effect of the preparation on biligenesis is maintained with the liver dystrophy induced by carbon tetrachloride and polychlorines as well. Under these conditions it is manifested to a greater extent than in the healthy animals.
