Simple enzymatic detection method for urinary sulfated 7 alpha-hydroxy bile acids in normal subjects and in patients with acute hepatitis.
Urinary sulfated primary bile acids, 7 alpha-hydroxy bile acids, are detected by an enzymatic method using 7 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.-, 7 alpha-HSD) after chromatographic fractionation on Sephadex G-25. Urinary sulfated or glucuronated bile acids are hydrolyzed by beta-glucuronidase/sulfatase (EC 3.2.1.31/EC 3.1.6.1) from Helix pomatia and then released 7 alpha-hydroxy bile acids are detected with 7 alpha-HSD in the presence of beta-ND+, diaphorase (EC 1.6.99.2, from Clostridium kluyveri) and 2-p-iodophenyl-3-p-nitrophenyl-5-phenyltetrazolium chloride. The absorbance of formazan formed during the enzymic reaction is measured at 500 nm. Excretion values of 7 alpha-hydroxy bile acids in normal subjects and in patients with acute hepatitis were compared. This enzymatic detection method for the excretion pattern of urinary 7 alpha-hydroxy bile acids may be useful for clinical diagnosis.
