Abstract:
It is apparent that proton transport plays an important role in many essential hepatocyte functions. Important unanswered issues include the location of the H+-ATPase and its role in hepatic functions, the regulators of Na+-H+ exchange, the exact role of Na+-H+ exchange in bile formation and in hepatic regeneration, and the role of bile acids such as UDCA and nor-UDCA in mediating transepithelial proton transport.
