Gall-Stones: Subject Matter and Classification | Biochemistry

In this article we will discuss about the Subject Matter and Classification of Gall-Stones. Subject Matter of Gall-Stones: In the gall-bladder, cholesterol is solubilized by being held in micelles together with conjugated bile salts and phospholipids. The solubility depends on the ratio of cholesterol to bile salts plus phospholipids. The secretion of phospholipids into the bile depends on the availability [...]
