*Calcium signaling within and between hepatocytes decreases with choleostasis – changes in gap junctions so may change microperistalsis down the terminal canaliculi to the bile ducts in the portal triads (counter to direction of blood flow).

*cAMP mediated signaling in the hepatocyte is impaired due changes in G protein expression and localization. This together with changes in membrane composition and the detergent effects of the bile salts – contribute to decreased adenylate cyclase activity. Also therefore decrease effects of glucagons and VIP that normal stimulate bile secretion.
