Urobilinogen
Urobilinogen is a colourless product of
bilirubin reduction. It is formed in the intestines by
bacterial action. Some urobilinogen is reabsorbed, taken up by the hepatocytes into the circulation and excreted by the kidney. This constitutes the normal "intrahepatic urobilinogen cycle". Increased amounts of bilirubin are formed in haemolysis which generate increased urobilinogen in the gut. In liver disease (such as hepatitis) the intrahepatic urobilinogen cycle is inhibited also increasing urobilinogen levels. Urobilinogen is converted to the yellow pigmented
urobilin apparent in urine.
