Conjugative metabolism and biliary excretion of phenolphthalein (PP) were studied in steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) acclimated to 10, 14 or 18 degrees C. Significant seasonal effects were found on liver weight to body weight ratio and conjugative metabolism but not biliary excretion of free plus conjugate of PP. Temperature did not significantly interact with these relationships. PP was excreted in bile as parent compound and the glucuronide conjugate at all temperatures. Saturation of the excretory process was apparent at a dose of approximately 10 mumol/kg (i.p.) at 10 and 14, but not 18 degrees C. 相似文献

The fractional protein synthesis rate (FSR) of tissue (liver, digestive tract, muscle and whole fish) proteins was measured in rainbow trout acclimated to 9 and 18 degrees C after a pulse injection of [U-14C] L-leucine. In each of the tissues two FSRs were calculated based on a different estimate of the specific radioactivity of leucine in the precursor compartment for protein synthesis. Whole fish protein synthesis (WFPS) was estimated to be 7 and 7.6 g protein per kg body weight and per day respectively at 10 and 18 degrees C. Muscle and digestive tract contributed the most (more than 30%) to WFPS. The rate of protein turnover in whole fish was very low, as in the muscle, when compared to liver and digestive tract. 相似文献

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) functions as a cofactor for prokaryotic oxidoreductases, such as methanol dehydrogenase and membrane-bound glucose dehydrogenase. In animals fed chemically defined diets, PQQ improves reproductive outcome and neonatal growth. Consequently, the present study was undertaken to determine the extent to which PQQ is absorbed by the intestine, its tissue distribution, and route of excretion. About 28 micrograms of PQQ (0.42 microCi/mumol), labeled with 14C derived from L-tyrosine, was administered orally to Swiss-Webster mice (18-20 g) to estimate absorption. PQQ was readily absorbed (62%, range 19-89%) in the lower intestine, and was excreted by the kidneys (81% of the absorbed dose) within 24 hr. The only tissues that retained significant amounts of [14C]PQQ at 24 hr were skin and kidney. For kidney, it was assumed that retention of [14C]PQQ represented primarily PQQ destined for excretion. For skin, the concentration of [14C]PQQ increased from 0.3% of the absorbed dose at 6 hr to 1.3% at 24 hr. Furthermore, most of the [14C]PQQ in blood (greater than 95%) was associated with the blood cell fraction, rather than plasma. 相似文献

We have investigated the effects of a 3-thia fatty acid (TTA) and of temperature on the fatty acid (FA) metabolism of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). One experiment investigated the activity of the peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzyme, acyl-CoA oxidase (ACO), and the incorporation of TTA into phospholipid (PL) molecular species. Salmon hepatocytes in culture were incubated either without TTA (control(spades)) or with 0.8 mM TTA (TTA(spades)) in a short term (48 h) temperature study at 5 degrees C and at 12 degrees C. TTA was incorporated into the four PL classes studied: phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylserine (PS). TTA was preferentially esterified with 18:1, 16:1, 20:4 and 22:6 in the PLs. Hepatocytes incubated with TTA had higher ACO activity at 5 degrees C than at 12 degrees C. In a second experiment salmon were fed a diet based on fish meal-fish oil without any TTA added (control) or a fish meal-fish oil diet supplemented with 0.6% TTA for 8 weeks at 12 degrees C and 20 weeks at 5 degrees C. At the end of the feeding trial, hepatocytes from fish acclimated to high or low temperatures were isolated from both dietary groups and incubated with either [1-(14)C]18:1 n-9 or [1-(14)C]20:4 n-3 at 5 degrees C or 12 degrees C. Radiolabelled 18:1 n-9 was mainly esterified into neutral lipids (NL), whereas [1-(14)C]20:4 n-3 was mainly esterified into PL at both temperatures. The rate of elongation of [1-(14)C]18:1 n-9 to 20:1 n-9 was twice as high in hepatocytes from fish fed the control diet than it was in hepatocytes from fish fed the TTA diet, at both temperatures. The amount of [1-(14)C]20:4 n-3 converted to 22:6 n-3 was approximately the same in hepatocytes from the two dietary groups, but there was a tendency to higher production of 22:6 n-3 at the lower temperature. Oxidation of [1-(14)C]18:1 n-9 to acid soluble products (ASP) and CO(2) was approximately 10-fold greater in hepatocytes kept at 5 degrees C than in those kept at 12 degrees C and the main oxidation products formed were acetate, oxaloacetate and malate. 相似文献

This research examined the influence of acute changes of water temperature on the recovery processes following exhaustive exercise in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). White muscle phosphocreatine (PCr), ATP, lactate, glycogen, glucose, pyruvate, plasma lactate, and plasma osmolality were measured during rest and at 0, 1, 2, and 4 h following exhaustive exercise in fish acclimated and exercised at 12 degrees C and acutely exposed to either 6 degrees C or 18 degrees C water during recovery. An acute exposure to 6 degrees C water during the recovery period resulted in a severe reduction of metabolic recovery in salmon. However, metabolites such as muscle PCr and ATP and plasma lactate recovered very quickly (2-4 h) in fish acutely exposed to 18 degrees C during recovery. Overall, differences exist when postexercise metabolite levels are compared between acclimated fish and those fish acutely exposed to different water temperatures (either higher or lower). Taken together, the findings of the acute experiments suggest that at some point following exercise fish may seek warmer environments to speed the recovery process. However, the relationship between behavioural thermoregulation and recovery following exhaustive exercise in fish is not well understood. 相似文献

Summary Urine flow increased with acute temperature increases and showed temperature acclimation. When measured at 20 °C the urine flow of 10 °C acclimated fish was 3.2 times greater than the urine flow of 30 °C acclimated fish. In fish acclimated to 24 °C renal reabsorption of Na and Cl was independent of temperature over an intermediate range of temperatures (14–24 °C) but near the lower lethal temperature (6.5 °C) renal Na and Cl reabsorption was inhibited. Water permeability of the renal tubules was not affected by acute temperature change between 6.5 and 24 °C. Urine osmolality and urine Na, K and Cl concentrations showed nearly perfect temperature compensation in fish acclimated to 10 °C and 30 °C. The rate of renal excretion of Na and Cl showed temperature acclimation in that Na and Cl ecxretion measured at 20 °C was 7 to 8 times greater in 10 °C acclimated fish than in 30 °C acclimated fish. The rate of excretion of Na and Cl measured at 30 °C in 30 °C acclimated fish was approximately 1.7 times the rate of excretion measured at 10 °C in 10 °C acclimated fish.The branchial uptake of Na, measured in tap water, of fish acclimated to 10, 20 and 30 °C in demineralized water increased with acute increases in temperature. When the three acclimation groups were compared at an intermediate temperature (20 °C), the 10 °C acclimated group showed the highest rate of net uptake, and the 30 °C group the lowest rate of uptake. This apparent temperature acclimation of Na uptake was correlated with differences in the plasma Na concentration of the three acclimation groups. Plasma Cl concentrations were also correlated with acclimation temperature in fish acclimated in demineralized water, but the rate of net Cl uptake was considerably less than that for Na. Sodium and Cl uptake in fish which had been acclimated in tap water was very variable and was not clearly affected by acute changes in temperature. Uptake of Na and Cl by fish held in tap water did not show temperature acclimation. The difference between uptake and excretion of fish acclimated in tap water was not significantly different from zero, indicating that the fish were in salt balance.The study was supported by National Institutes of Health Grant GM 16932-02 to Dr. Bodil Schmidt-Nielsen. I am grateful to Dr. Schmidt-Nielsen for many useful discussions during the course of this work. 相似文献

The conjugate pattern of biliary [14C]bile acids was investigated in isolated perfused rat livers, which were infused with either [24-14C]cholic acid or [24-14C]chenodeoxycholic acid (40 mumol/h) together with or without taurine or cysteine (80 mumol/h). [14C]Bile acids were chromatographed on a thin-layer plate and the distribution of radioactivity on the plate was measured by radioscanning. The biliary excretion of [14C]bile acids was greater in the infusion with [14C]cholic acid than in the infusion with [14C]chenodeoxycholic acid. Biliary unconjugated [14C]bile acids amounted to about 50% of the total after the infusion with [14C]cholic acid, while only about 10% with [14C]chenodeoxycholic acid. In the initial period of infusion, biliary conjugated [14C]bile acids consisted mostly of the taurine conjugate, which decreased with time and the glycine conjugate increased complementarily. When taurine was simultaneously infused, the decrease in the taurine conjugate was suppressed to some extent. Cysteine infused in place of taurine had a similar influence but was less effective than taurine. The taurine content of liver after the infusion with either of the [14C]bile acids decreased greatly compared with that before the infusion, even when taurine or cysteine was infused simultaneously. The glycine content also decreased after the infusion, but the decrease in glycine was smaller than that in taurine. The results suggest that the conjugate pattern of biliary bile acids in rats depends mainly on the amount of taurine which is supplied to hepatic cells either exogenously from plasma or endogenously within themselves. 相似文献

[14C]Noviflumuron uptake, clearance, rate of excretion, and transfer from treated to untreated termite workers were evaluated at 15,19, 23, and 27 degrees C. Feeding units were constructed from plastic containers provisioned with washed sand, distilled water, [14C]noviflumuron-treated feeding discs (0.05 or 0.5% [AI]), and Reticulitermes flavipes (Kollar) workers. Feeding units were held in environmental growth chambers preset at 15, 19, 23, and 27 degrees C. The amount of [14C]noviflumuron present within R. flavipes was measured by scintillation counting and subsequently quantified. Uptake of noviflumuron by R. flavipes workers at 15 degrees C was approximately 2.8 times less than at 19 or 23 degrees C and approximately 4.4 times less than at 27 degrees ighest uptake of [14C]noviflumuron occurred at 27 degrees C and 144 h. Most transfer of [14C]noviflumuron from treated to untreated termite workers occurred between 19 and 27 degrees C. [14C]Noviflumuron had a half-life in R. flavipes workers of approximately 31-45 d, dependent on temperature. A higher amount of [14C]noviflumuron was lost through excretion at > or = 19 degrees C (approximately 15-22%) compared with 15 degrees C (0.27%). Results indicated that increased uptake, transfer, and clearance of noviflumuron by R. flavipes occurred at warmer temperatures (19-27 degrees C), and all of these processes were significantly lower at 15 degrees C. 相似文献

Sunshine bass (Morone chrysopsxMorone saxatilis) were subjected to a 15-min low-water confinement stressor at temperatures ranging from 5 to 30 degrees C. Physiological responses were evaluated by measuring hematocrit, and plasma chloride, glucose and cortisol. Fish acclimated to 30 degrees C had initial glucose concentrations of 3.13 mM (564 mg/L) which were significantly lower than in fish acclimated to 5 and 10 degrees C (4.32 and 4.82 mM or 779 and 868 mg/l, respectively). Fish survived the conditions imposed at every temperature except 30 degrees C, where 15 out of 42 fish died during the stress and recovery protocol. The general pattern was an initial increase in hematocrit, followed by a delayed decrease in hematocrit and chloride, and an increase in plasma glucose and cortisol. In general, fish stressed at temperatures below 20 degrees C had lower and more delayed changes in plasma glucose and cortisol than fish tested at 20, 25 and 30 degrees C. Initial cortisol concentrations were 65 ng/ml and increased to above 200 ng/ml in fish held at 20 degrees C and above. At the higher temperatures, glucose concentrations were twice the initial concentration after stress and cortisol changes were four to five times the initial concentration after the stress. Quantitative responses for glucose and cortisol were moderate and recovery rapid in fish stressed at 10 and 15 degrees C; therefore, this range of water temperature is recommended when handling sunshine bass. 相似文献

1. Addition of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene to isolated perfused rat liver results in the rapid formation of its glutathione-S-conjugate [S-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)glutathione], which is released into both, bile and effluent perfusate. Anisotonic perfusion did not affect total S-conjugate formation, but release of the S-conjugate into the perfusate was increased (decreased) following hypertonic (hypotonic) exposure at the expense of excretion into bile. Stimulation of S-conjugate release into the perfusate following hypertonic exposure paralleled the time course of volume-regulatory net K+ uptake. 2. Basal steady-state release of oxidized glutathione (GSSG) into bile was 1.30 +/- 0.12 nmol.g-1.min-1 (n = 18) during normotonic (305 mOsmol/l) perfusion and was 3.8 +/- 0.3 nmol.g-1.min-1 in the presence of t-butylhydroperoxide (50 mumol/l). Hypotonic exposure (225 mOsmol/1) lowered both, basal and t-butylhydroperoxide (50 mumol/l)-stimulated GSSG release into bile by 35% and 20%, respectively, whereas hypertonic exposure (385 mOsmol/l) increased. Anisotonic exposure was without effect on t-butylhydroperoxide removal by the liver. GSSG release into bile also decreased by 33% upon liver-cell swelling due to addition of glutamine plus glycine (2 mmol/l, each). 3. Hypotonic exposure led to a persistent stimulation 14CO2 production from [1-14C]glucose by about 80%, whereas 14CO2 production from [6-14C]glucose increased by only 10%. Conversely, hypertonic exposure inhibited 14CO2 production from [1-14C]glucose by about 40%, whereas 14CO2 production from [6-14C]glucose was unaffected. The effect of anisotonicity on 14CO2 production from [1-14C]glucose was also observed in presence of t-butylhydroperoxide (50 mumol/l), which increased 14CO2 production from [1-14C]glucose by about 40%. 4. t-Butylhydroperoxide (50 mumol/l) was without significant effect on volume-regulatory K+ fluxes following exposure to hypotonic (225 mOsmol/l) or hypertonic (385 mOsmol/l) perfusate. Lactate dehydrogenase release from perfused rat liver under the influence of t-butylhydroperoxide was increased by hypertonic exposure compared to hypotonic perfusions. 5. The data suggest that hypotonic cell swelling stimulates flux through the pentose-phosphate pathway and diminishes loss of GSSG under conditions of mild oxidative stress. Hypotonically swollen cells are less prone to hydroperoxide-induced lactate dehydrogenase release than hypertonically shrunken cells. Hypertonic cell shrinkage stimulates the excretion of glutathione-S-conjugates into the sinusoidal circulation at the expense of biliary secretion. 相似文献

The reproductive behaviour of the sexually coercive male eastern mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki) offers an excellent model system for testing the benefits of reversible thermal acclimation responses to mating success. We acclimated male mosquitofish to either 18 or 30 degrees C (14 h light:10 h dark) for six weeks and tested their ability to obtain coercive copulations in the presence and the absence of male-male competition. Based on the beneficial acclimation hypothesis, we predicted for both sets of experiments that 18 degrees C acclimated males would outperform 30 degrees C acclimated males when tested at 18 degrees C, and vice versa when tested at 30 degrees C. We found that copulation success was greater for acclimated than non-acclimated males at both temperatures when individual males were tested without competing males. In contrast, when males from the different acclimation treatments were competed against each other for copulations with a single female, the 30 degrees C acclimated males were more aggressive and obtained a greater number of copulations at both test temperatures. Thus, we found a clear benefit for acclimation when fish were tested in a non-competitive environment, but acclimation to cool temperatures was associated with a decrease in aggressive behaviour that reduced mating performance at both test temperatures in a competitive environment. In contrast with the long-held assumption that reversible plasticity is beneficial, the adaptive significance of reversible physiological plasticity is affected by a variety of other ecological factors and is more complex than previously suggested. 相似文献

The tissue distribution and time course of incorporation into acid insoluble (bound) and acid soluble (free) fractions of [3H]2-fluorohistidine is compared to that of U[14C]Histidine in mouse tissues in vivo. The cycloheximide-sensitive incorporation of 2-FHis is between 9 and 17 percent of that of His. Unlike [14C]His a major fraction, approximately 90% at 72 hrs, of isotope derived from [3H]2-FHis remains in tissues for a prolonged period in an acid soluble form. The excretion of isotope derived from [14C]His (T1/2 = 5 hr) is more rapid than from [3H]2-FHis (T1/2 = 11.4 hrs). 2-FHis, at doses from 100 to 250 mg/kg produce a reversible inhibition of growth in mice. 相似文献

Endocrine and thermoregulatory responses were studied in male rats exposed to heat (32.5 +/- 0.1 degrees C) from acclimation temperatures of either 24.5 +/- 0.1 degrees C or 29.2 +/- 0.1 degrees C. After 1 hr in the heat, evaporative water loss and tail skin temperature changes in the 24.5 degrees C acclimated rats were greater than in the 29.2 degrees C acclimated rats; both groups displayed similar changes in metabolic rate and rectal temperature. At the respective acclimation temperatures, 29.2 degrees C rats displayed lowered plasma thyroid hormones, elevated beta-endorphin-like immunoreactivity (beta-END-LI) in the plasma, neurointermediate and anterior lobes of the pituitary gland, and no change in plasma corticosterone levels compared to 24.5 degrees C rats. After exposure to 32.5 degrees C for 1 hr, both groups of rats maintained similar plasma corticosterone levels; however, only the 24.5 degrees C group increased plasma thyroxine and beta-END-LI. These data suggest that beta-endorphin may be involved in body temperature regulation during acclimation to elevated environmental temperatures. 相似文献

In long-term experimental anoxia (up to 140 days) crucian carp excreted ethanol and acetic acid. The maximum concentration of ethanol found in fish blood was ca 0.1%. The excretion rate of ethanol at temperatures from -0.5 to +5 degrees C was ca 25 micrograms/g fish wet wt/hr, but increased rapidly with increasing temperature. At 2 and 5 degrees C the ethanol excretion rate was independent of fish size, but at 12 and 18 degrees C a higher rate was observed in smaller fish. The decrease of water pH below 5 in the experimental vial during long anoxia was assumed to be due to excretion of acid compounds by the fish. 相似文献

We examined the dose response, time course and reversibility of the effect of methyl 2-tetradecylglycidate (McN-3716, methyl palmoxirate or MEP), an inhibitor of -oxidation of fatty acids, on incorporation of radiolabeled palmitic acid ([U-14C]PA) from plasma into brain lipids of awake rats. MEP (0.1, 1 and 10 mg/kg) or vehicle was administered intravenously from 10 min to 72 hr prior to infusion of [U-14C]PA. Two hr pretreatment with MEP (0.1 to 10 mg/kg) increased brain organic radioactivity 1.2 to 1.8 fold and decreased brain aqueous radioactivity by 1.2 to 3.0 fold when compared to control values. At 10 mg/kg, MEP significantly increased brain organic fraction from 40% in controls to 85%, 30 min to 6 hr pretreatment, and resulted in a redistribution of the radiolabeled fatty acid toward triacylglycerol. MEP changed the lipid/aqueous brain ratio of incorporated [U-14C]PA from 0.67 to 5.7. The incorporation rate coefficient, k*, was significantly increased by MEP (10 mg/kg) at 2 hr (31%), 4 hr (59%) and 6 hr (34%). All effects were reversed by 72 hr, consistent with a half-life of 2 days for carnitine palmitoyl transferase I. These results indicate that intravenous MEP may be used with [1-11C]palmitic acid for studying brain lipid metabolism in vivo by positron emission tomography, as it significantly reduces the large unincorporated aqueous fraction that would result in high background radioactivity. 相似文献

To non-anaesthetized rats starved for 3 days, [U-14C]acetone, NaH14CO3, L-[U-14C]lactate, [2-14C]acetate or D-[U-14C]- plus D-[3-3H]-glucose was injected intravenously. From the change in the plasma concentration of labelled acetone versus time after the injection, the metabolic clearance rate of acetone was calculated as 2.25 ml/min per kg body wt., and its rate of turnover as 0.74 mumol/min per kg. The extent and time course of the labelling of plasma glucose, lactate, urea and acetoacetate were followed and compared with those observed after the injection of labelled lactate, acetate and NaHCO3. The labelling of plasma lactate was rapid and extensive. Some 1.37% of the 14C atoms of circulating glucose originated from plasma acetone, compared with 44% originating from lactate. By deconvolution of the Unit Impulse Response Function of glucose, it was shown that the flux of C atoms from acetone to glucose reached a peak at about 100 min after injection of labelled acetone. In comparable experiments the transfer from lactate reached a peak at 14 min after the injection of labelled lactate. It was concluded that acetone is converted into lactate to a degree sufficient to account for the labelling of plasma glucose and is thus a true, albeit minor, substrate of glucose synthesis in starved rats. 相似文献

The response of trout red cells to adrenaline during seasonal acclimation and changes in temperature 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Adult rainbow trout were acclimated to three different temperature and photoperiod regimes: 17°C, 14 h light: 10 h dark (summer); 7° C, 14 h light: 10 h dark; and 5° C, 8 h light: 16 h dark (winter). Blood was collected from these fish after 40 days acclimation, and the response of red blood cells to in vitro adrenergic stimulation was assessed. To examine potential seasonal variations in endogenous levels of circulating catecholamines, plasma levels of adrenaline (Ad) and noradrenaline (NAd) were measured at rest and after exercise. At rest, there were no differences between groups in plasma levels of either Ad or NAd, but, after exercise, the pattern of catecholamine elevation differed. In fish acclimated to 17 and 7° C in summer, Ad and NAd increased by about the same amount (10–15 times). In fish acclimated to 5° C in winter, NAd increased about three-fold, compared to the near 50-fold increase in Ad levels. Whether this difference between groups can be attributed to seasonal influences is unclear. At both low (0·5%) and high (2%) PCO 2 , adrenergic stimulation (2 × 10-7 M Ad) of trout red cells in vitro led to a significant reduction in MCHC (mean cell [haemoglobin]), compared to non-stimulated cells. However, only at the high PCO 2 were pHe and red cell pHi significantly different from those in the non-stimulated cells: the latter was higher and the former lower in the stimulated cells. There were no differences in the response of red cells to adrenergic stimulation between groups of fish. Under the conditions of the present study no influence of season and/or temperature on the in vitro response of trout red cells to adrenergic stimulation was shown. 相似文献

We made a single intraperitoneal (IP) injection of morphine sulfate (40 mg/kg) into winter flounder and seawater acclimated rainbow trout at 10 degrees C and then followed its disposition by measuring the change in plasma morphine concentration for 100 h using a morphine specific ELISA. Disposition also was followed for 6h after a single IV injection of 7.5mg morphine sulfate in winter flounder. Plasma morphine reached a maximum within an hour post-injection IP and then decreased in a bi-exponential fashion with a rapid distribution phase followed by a slower elimination phase. The disposition was slower in flounder than in trout even though the fish were held at the same temperature. For example, plasma clearance was 76 mL h(-)(1) kg(-)(1) in the flounder but was almost twice as much in the trout (153 mL h(-)(1) kg(-)(1)) and mean residence time was 27.9h in the flounder but was 7.0 h in the trout. The present study is the first comprehensive pharmacokinetic analysis for any analgesic in an ectotherm, and our results show that: 1) significant intra-specific variation exists between fishes: and 2) the disposition of morphine in fish is approximately one order of magnitude slower than it is in mammals. These differences may be due in part to mass specific differences in cardiac output. 相似文献

Bile acid structure and bile formation in the guinea pig 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
N Tavoloni 《Biochimica et biophysica acta》1986,879(2):186-201
The effects of intravenous infusions (1-4 mumol/min/kg) of 14 bile acids, cholic, deoxycholic, ursodeoxycholic, chenodeoxycholic, dehydrocholic, and their glycine and taurine conjugates, on bile flow and composition and on the biliary permeation of inert carbohydrates have been studied in the guinea pig bile fistula. Hydroxy bile acids were eliminated in bile without major transformation, except for conjugation (over 90%) when unconjugated bile acids were infused. During infusion of dehydrocholate and taurodehydrocholate, 77-100% of the administered dose was recovered in bile as 3-hydroxy bile acids, thus indicating that reduction of the keto group in position 3 was virtually complete. All bile acids produced choleresis at the doses employed: the strongest choleretic was deoxycholate (81.78 microliters/mumol), the weakest was taurodehydrocholate (10.2 microliters/mumol). Choleretic activity was directly and linearly related to bile acid hydrophobicity, as inferred by HPLC, both for similarly conjugated bile acids, and for bile acids having the same number, position, or configuration of the hydroxyl groups. In all instances, the rank ordering was: deoxycholate greater than chenodeoxycholate greater than cholate greater than ursodeoxycholate. During choleresis produced by any of the bile acids tested, bicarbonate concentration in bile slightly declined, but the calculated concentration in bile-acid-stimulated bile (45-57 mmol/l) was always higher than that measured in plasma (23-26 mmol/l). Biliary concentrations of cholesterol (20-68 mumol/l) and phospholipid (14-63 mumol/l) were very low during spontaneous secretion, and declined even further following bile acid choleresis. None of the infused bile acids consistently modified biliary excretion of cholesterol and phospholipid. Consistent with a previous observation from this laboratory, all hydroxy bile acids reversibly diminished [14C]erythritol and [14C]mannitol biliary entry during choleresis, while they increased or failed to modify that of [3H]sucrose and [3H]inulin. The rank ordering for the inhibitory effect on [14C]erythritol and [14C]mannitol permeation was: 3 alpha,7 alpha,12 alpha-trihydroxy greater than 3 alpha,7 alpha-dihydroxy greater than 3 alpha,7 beta-dihydroxy greater than 3 alpha,12 alpha-dihydroxy bile acids.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Role of the hepatocyte microtubular system in the excretion of bile salts and biliary lipid: implications for intracellular vesicular transport 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The role of the hepatocyte microtubular system in the transport and excretion of bile salts and biliary lipid has not been defined. In this study the effects of microtubule inhibition on biliary excretion of micelle- and non-micelle-forming bile salts and associated lipid were examined in rats. Low-dose colchicine pretreatment had no effect on the baseline excretion of biliary bile salts and phospholipid in animals studied 1 hr after surgery (basal animals), but slightly retarded the excretion of tracer [14C]taurocholate relative to that of lumicolchicine-pretreated (control) rats. However, colchicine pretreatment resulted in a marked reduction in the excretion of 2 mumol/100 g doses of a series of four micelle-forming bile salts of differing hydrophilicity, but had no significant effect on the excretion of the non-micelle-forming bile salt, taurodehydrocholate. Continuous infusion of 0.2 mumol of taurocholate/(100 g.min) following 24 hr of biliary drainage (depleted/reinfused animals) resulted in physiologic bile flow with biliary excretion rates of bile salts, phospholipid, and cholesterol that were markedly inhibited (mean 33, 39, and 42%, respectively) by colchicine or vinblastine pretreatment. Excretion of tracer [14C]taurocholate also was markedly delayed by colchicine in these bile salt-depleted/reinfused animals. In contrast, colchicine did not inhibit bile salt excretion in response to reinfusion of taurodehydrocholate. Thus, under basal conditions, the microtubular system appears to play a minor role in hepatic transport and excretion of bile salts and biliary lipid. However, biliary excretion of micelle-forming bile salts and associated phospholipid and cholesterol becomes increasingly dependent on microtubular integrity as the transcellular flux and biliary excretion of bile salts increases, in both bile salt-depleted and basal animals. We postulate that cotransport of micelle-forming bile salts and lipids destined for biliary excretion, via an intracellular vesicular pathway, forms the basis for this microtubule dependence. 相似文献
