AP2 adaptor complex mediates bile salt export pump internalization and modulates its hepatocanalicular expression and transport function
Hisamitsu Hayashi, Kaori Inamura, Kensuke Aida, Sotaro Naoi, Reiko Horikawa, Hironori Nagasaka, Tomozumi Takatani, Tamio Fukushima, Asami Hattori, Takashi Yabuki, Ikuo Horii, Yuichi Sugiyama – 19 January 2012 – The bile salt export pump (BSEP) mediates the biliary excretion of bile salts and its dysfunction induces intrahepatic cholestasis. Reduced canalicular expression of BSEP resulting from the promotion of its internalization is one of the causes of this disease state. However, the molecular mechanism underlying BSEP internalization from the canalicular membrane (CM) remains unknown.
