ABSTRACT
Cholestasis is characterized by impaired bile secretion and flow, leading to the accumulation of toxic bile acids in the liver, further causing inflammatory reaction, fibrosis, and ultimately liver transplantation. Although first-line clinical agents such as Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and Obeticholic acid (OCA) are available, serious side effects still exist. Therefore, pharmacologic treatment of cholestatic liver disease remains challenging. Here, we used a murine model of cholestasis treated with or without intraperitoneal injection of baicalein and found that baicalein could attenuate 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydrocollidine (DDC) diet-induced inflammatory response, ductular reaction, liver fibrosis, and bile acid metabolism disorders. Furthermore, the therapeutic effect of baicalein was hampered in the presence of Guggulsterone (GS), an Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) antagonist. These results indicated that baicalein alleviated DDC diet-induced cholestatic liver injury in an FXR-dependent manner.
