DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202302677
Abstract: Oral insulin therapies targeting the liver and further simulating close‐looped secretion face significant challenges due to multiple trans‐epithelial barriers. Herein, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA)‐decorated zwitterionic nanoparticles (NPs) (UC‐CMs@ins) are designed to overcome these barriers, target the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2019.06.009
Abstract: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from Gram (-) bacteria induces inflammatory cholestasis by impairing the expression/localization of transporters involved in bile formation (e.g., Bsep, Mrp2). Therapeutic options for this disease are lacking. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is the first… read more here.
