[Microstructure of vesicular agglomerates of the lithogenic bile]

Bimolecular layer of phospholipids and cholesterol is the structural base of the vesicular agglomerates of the lithogenic bile, as was shown by the methods of scanning and transmission electron microscopy. There are two morphologic versions of the lipid texture in agglomerates: a/multilayer's vesicles resembles to multilamellar liposomes b/aggregate of the bilayer's lamellae's growing in package. The authors considers that the lamellae's phase together with lipophilic and hydrophilic substances is not only predecessor, but also main structural component of the cholesterol bile stones.
