Changes in bile acid composition of serum and gallbladder bile in bile duct ligated dogs.
    The Journal of veterinary medical science, 1994, Volume: 56, Issue:2

    Biliary obstruction was produced by surgical ligation of the common bile duct to observe alterations in serum bile acid composition. The percent composition of serum bile acids was found to change with time. Taurocholic acid increased on day 3 and accounted for more than 90% of the total bile acids in all dogs, however it decreased after day 7. The percentage of taurochenodeoxycholic acid (TCDC) and taurodeoxycholic acid (TDC) decreased to 4.2-6.0% and 0.2-0.7% on day 3, respectively. However, the percentage of TCDC increased after day 7 in all dogs and reached greater than 20% on day 14 in 2 dogs, whereas the percent TDC after bile duct ligation remained low in all dogs. Glycolithocholic acid, which was not identified in normal dog sera, was detected on day 3 and remained throughout the study in all dogs. Bile acid composition of gallbladder bile sampled on day 35 was similar to the serum bile acid composition on the same day. This indicates that the bile acids refluxed into the circulation in these dogs. In the present study, total cholic acid to chenodeoxycholic acid (C:CDC) ratio increased to 15.5-22.3 at three days post bile duct ligation and after the day 14, the C:CDC ratio decreased to its pre-ligation value or below. In contrast, the glycine conjugated to taurine conjugated bile acids (G:T) ratio did not change. Therefore, at this time, the G:T ratio would not be usable as an indicator of liver disease in dogs while it may be possible to use the C:CDC ratio.

Separate transport systems for biliary secretion of sulfated and unsulfated bile acids in the rat.
    The Journal of clinical investigation, 1988, Volume: 81, Issue:5

    Biliary secretion of 3 alpha-sulfated bile acids has been studied in Wistar rats with an autosomal recessive defect in the hepatic transport of bilirubin. Liver function, established by measurement of various enzymes in plasma, by enzyme histochemical methods, and by electron microscopy, appeared to be normal in these rats. Serum levels of unconjugated, monoglucuronidated, and diglucuronidated bilirubin were 0.62, 1.62, and 6.16 mumol/liter, respectively, compared with 0.17, 0.08, and 0.02 mumol/liter in control rats. Biliary bilirubin secretion was strongly reduced in the mutant animals: 0.21 +/- 0.03 vs. 0.39 +/- 0.03 nmol/min per 100 g body wt in control rats. Despite normal biliary bile acid output, bile flow was markedly impaired in the mutant animals, due to a 53% reduction of the bile acid-independent fraction of bile flow. The transport maximum for biliary secretion of dibromosulphthalein (DBSP) was also drastically reduced (-53%). Biliary secretion of intravenously administered trace amounts of the 3 alpha-sulfate esters of 14C-labeled taurocholic acid (-14%), taurochenodeoxycholic acid (-39%), taurolithocholic acid (-73%), and glycolithocholic acid (-91%) was impaired in the jaundiced rats compared with controls, in contrast to the biliary secretion of the unsulfated parent compounds. Hepatic uptake of sulfated glycolithocholic acid was not affected in the jaundiced animals. Preadministration of DBSP (15 mumol/100 g body wt) to normal Wistar rats significantly impaired the biliary secretion of sulfated glycolithocholic acid, but did not affect taurocholic acid secretion. We conclude that separate transport systems in the rat liver exist for biliary secretion of sulfated and unsulfated bile acids; the sulfates probably share secretory pathways with the organic anions bilirubin and DBSP. The described genetic defect in hepatic transport function is associated with a reduced capacity to secrete sulfated bile acids into bile; this becomes more pronounced with a decreasing number of hydroxyl groups on the sulfated bile acid's molecule.

Thin-layer chromatographic separation of conjugates of ursodeoxycholic acid from those of litho-, chenodeoxy-, deoxy-, and cholic acids.
    Journal of lipid research, 1981, Volume: 22, Issue:4

    Separation of the glycine and taurine conjugates of ursodeoxycholic acid from those of lithocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, deoxycholic acid, and cholic acid by thin-layer chromatography is described. Thus, on running a silica gel G plate first in a solvent system of n-butanol-water 20:3 and then in a second solvent system of chloroform-isopropanol-acetic acid-water 30:20:4:1, all the above-mentioned conjugated bile acids are separated from one another. The application of this method to study the change in the biliary bile acid conjugation pattern in ursodeoxycholic acid-fed gallstone patients is described.
