Question

Explain how bilirubin is excreted out through liver.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Normally, conjugated bilirubin passes from the gallbladder or liver into the intestine. There, it is reduced by bacteria to mesobilirubinogen and urobilinogen. Some urobilinogen is reabsorbed back into the blood; the rest goes back to the liver or is excreted from the body in urine and fecal matter.

Answer 2

Answer:

Conjugated bilirubin is secreted into the bile canaliculus as part of bile and thus delivered to the small intestine. Bacteria in the intestinal lumen metabolize bilirubin to a series of other compounds which are ultimately eliminated either in feces or, after reabsorption, in urine.
