Interruption of the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids increases cholesterol catabolism, thereby stimulating hepatic cholesterol synthesis from acetate. We hypothesized that such treatment should lower the hepatic acetate pool which may alter triglyceride and glucose metabolism. We explored this using mice deficient of the ileal sodium-dependent BA transporter (Slc10a2) and ob/ob mice treated with a specific inhibitor of Slc10a2. Plasma TG levels were reduced in Slc10a2-deficient mice, and when challenged with a sucrose-rich diet, they displayed a reduced response in hepatic TG production as observed from the mRNA levels of several key enzymes in fatty acid synthesis. This effect was paralleled by a diminished induction of mature sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1c (Srebp1c). Unexpectedly, the SR-diet induced intestinal fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 15 mRNA and normalized bile acid synthesis in Slc10a2-/- mice. Pharmacologic inhibition of Slc10a2 in diabetic ob/ob mice reduced serum glucose, insulin and TGs, as well as hepatic mRNA levels of Srebp1c and its target genes. These responses are contrary to those reported following treatment of mice with a bile acid binding resin. Moreover, when key metabolic signal transduction pathways in the liver were investigated, those of Mek1/2-Erk1/2 and Akt were blunted after treatment of ob/ob mice with the Slc10a2 inhibitor. It is concluded that abrogation of Slc10a2 reduces hepatic Srebp1c activity and serum TGs, and in the diabetic ob/ob model it also reduces glucose and insulin levels. Hence, targeting of Slc10a2 may be a promising strategy to treat hypertriglyceridemia and diabetes. 相似文献

Blocking intestinal bile acid absorption by inhibiting the apical sodium codependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) is a target for increasing hepatic bile acid synthesis and reducing plasma LDL cholesterol. SC-435 was identified as a potent inhibitor of ASBT (IC50 = 1.5 nM) in cells transfected with the human ASBT gene. Dietary administration of 3 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg SC-435 to apolipoprotein E-/- (apoE-/-) mice increased fecal bile acid excretion by >2.5-fold. In vivo inhibition of ASBT also resulted in significant increases of hepatic mRNA levels for cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase and HMG-CoA reductase. Administration of 10 mg/kg SC-435 for 12 weeks to apoE-/- mice lowered serum total cholesterol by 35% and reduced aortic root lesion area by 65%. Treatment of apoE-/- mice also resulted in decreased expression of ileal bile acid binding protein and hepatic nuclear hormone receptor small heterodimer partner, direct target genes of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), suggesting a possible role of FXR in SC-435 modulation of cholesterol homeostasis. In dogs, SC-435 treatment reduced serum total cholesterol levels by =12% and, in combination with atorvastatin treatment, caused an additional reduction of 25%. These results suggest that specific inhibition of ASBT is a novel therapeutic approach for treatment of hypercholesterolemia resulting in a decreased risk for atherosclerosis. 相似文献

The bile salt-activated farnesoid X receptor (FXR; NR1H4) controls expression of several genes considered crucial in maintenance of bile salt homeostasis. We evaluated the physiological consequences of FXR deficiency on bile formation and on the kinetics of the enterohepatic circulation of cholate, the major bile salt species in mice. The pool size, fractional turnover rate, synthesis rate, and intestinal absorption of cholate were determined by stable isotope dilution and were related to expression of relevant transporters in the livers and intestines of FXR-deficient (Fxr-/-) mice. Fxr-/- mice showed only mildly elevated plasma bile salt concentrations associated with a 2.4-fold higher biliary bile salt output, whereas hepatic mRNA levels of the bile salt export pump were decreased. Cholate pool size and total bile salt pool size were increased by 67 and 39%, respectively, in Fxr-/- mice compared with wild-type mice. The cholate synthesis rate was increased by 85% in Fxr-/- mice, coinciding with a 2.5-fold increase in cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (Cyp7a1) and unchanged sterol 12alpha-hydroxylase (Cyp8b1) expression in the liver. Despite a complete absence of ileal bile acid-binding protein mRNA and protein, the fractional turnover rate and cycling time of the cholate pool were not affected. The calculated amount of cholate reabsorbed from the intestine per day was approximately 2-fold higher in Fxr-/- mice than in wild-type mice. Thus, the absence of FXR in mice is associated with defective feedback inhibition of hepatic cholate synthesis, which leads to enlargement of the circulating cholate pool with an unaltered fractional turnover rate. The absence of ileal bile acid-binding protein does not negatively interfere with the enterohepatic circulation of cholate in mice. 相似文献

We explored the influence of the hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance of a series of natural bile acids on cholesterol absorption in the mouse. Male C57L/J mice were fed standard chow or chow supplemented with 0.5% cholic; chenodeoxycholic; deoxycholic; dehydrocholic; hyocholic; hyodeoxycholic; alpha-, beta-, or omega-muricholic; ursocholic; or ursodeoxycholic acids for 7 days. Biliary bile salts were measured by reverse-phase HPLC, and hydrophobicity indices were estimated by Heuman's method. Cholesterol absorption efficiency was determined by a plasma dual-isotope ratio method. In mice fed chow, natural proportions of tauro-beta-muricholate (42 +/- 6%) and taurocholate (50 +/- 7%) with a hydrophobicity index of -0.35 +/- 0.04 produced cholesterol absorption of 37 +/- 5%. Because bacterial and especially hepatic biotransformations of specific bile acids occurred, hydrophobicity indices of the resultant bile salt pools differed from fed bile acids. We observed a significant positive correlation between hydrophobicity indices of the bile salt pool and percent cholesterol absorption. The principal mechanism whereby hydrophilic bile acids inhibit cholesterol absorption appears to be diminution of intraluminal micellar cholesterol solubilization. Gene expression of intestinal sterol efflux transporters Abcg5 and Abcg8 was upregulated by feeding cholic acid but not by hydrophilic beta-muricholic acid nor by hydrophobic deoxycholic acid. We conclude that the hydrophobicity of the bile salt pool predicts the effects of individual fed bile acids on intestinal cholesterol absorption. Natural alpha- and beta-muricholic acids are the most powerful inhibitors of cholesterol absorption in mice and might act as potent cholesterol-lowering agents for prevention of cholesterol deposition diseases in humans. 相似文献

Cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) is the initiating and rate-limiting enzyme in the neutral pathway that converts cholesterol to primary bile acids (BA). CYP7A1-deficient (Cyp7a1(-/-)) mice have a depleted BA pool, diminished intestinal cholesterol absorption, accelerated fecal sterol loss, and increased intestinal cholesterol synthesis. To determine the molecular and physiological effects of restoring the BA pool in this model, adult female Cyp7a1(-/-) mice and matching Cyp7a1(+/+) controls were fed diets containing cholic acid (CA) at modest levels [0.015, 0.030, and 0.060% (wt/wt)] for 15-18 days. A level of just 0.03% provided a CA intake of ~12 μmol (4.8 mg) per day per 100 g body wt and was sufficient in the Cyp7a1(-/-) mice to normalize BA pool size, fecal BA excretion, fractional cholesterol absorption, and fecal sterol excretion but caused a significant rise in the cholesterol concentration in the small intestine and liver, as well as a marked inhibition of cholesterol synthesis in these organs. In parallel with these metabolic changes, there were marked shifts in intestinal and hepatic expression levels for many target genes of the BA sensor farnesoid X receptor, as well as genes involved in cholesterol transport, especially ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter A1 (ABCA1) and ABCG8. In Cyp7a1(+/+) mice, this level of CA supplementation did not significantly disrupt BA or cholesterol metabolism, except for an increase in fecal BA excretion and marginal changes in mRNA expression for some BA synthetic enzymes. These findings underscore the importance of using moderate dietary BA levels in studies with animal models. 相似文献

Hepatic overexpression of murine Abcb11 increases hepatobiliary lipid secretion and reduces hepatic steatosis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Figge A Lammert F Paigen B Henkel A Matern S Korstanje R Shneider BL Chen F Stoltenberg E Spatz K Hoda F Cohen DE Green RM 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2004,279(4):2790-2799
Abcb11 encodes for the liver bile salt export pump, which is rate-limiting for hepatobiliary bile salt secretion. We employed transthyretin-Abcb11 and BAC-Abcb11 transgenes to develop mice overexpressing the bile salt export pump in the liver. The mice manifest increases in bile flow and biliary secretion of bile salts, phosphatidylcholine, and cholesterol. Hepatic gene expression of cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase and ileal expression of the apical sodium bile salt transporter are markedly reduced, whereas gene expression of targets of the nuclear bile salt receptor FXR (ileal lipid-binding protein, short heterodimer partner (SHP) is increased. Because these changes in gene expression are associated with an increased overall hydrophobicity of the bile salt pool and a 4-fold increase of the FXR ligand taurodeoxycholate, they reflect bile salt-mediated regulation of FXR and SHP target genes. Despite the increased biliary secretion of bile salts, fecal bile salt excretion is unchanged, suggestive of an enhanced enterohepatic cycling of bile salts. Abcb11 transgenic mice fed a lithogenic (high cholesterol/fat/cholic acid) diet display markedly reduced hepatic steatosis compared with wild-type controls. We conclude that mice overexpressing Abcb11 display an increase in biliary bile salt secretion and taurodeoxycholate content, which is associated with FXR/SHP-mediated changes in hepatic and ileal gene expression. Because these mice are resistant to hepatic lipid accumulation, regulation of Abcb11 may be important for the pathogenesis and treatment of steatohepatitis. 相似文献

Bile acids are synthesized via the classic pathway initiated by cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), and via alternate pathways, one of which is initiated by sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27). These studies used mice lacking cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (Cyp7a1(-/-)) to establish whether the loss of the classic pathway affected cholesterol homeostasis differently in males and females, and to determine if the rate of bile acid synthesis via alternate pathways was responsive to changes in the enterohepatic flux of cholesterol and bile acids. In both the Cyp7a1(-/-) males and females, the basal rate of bile acid synthesis was only half of that in matching Cyp7a1(+/+) animals. Although bile acid pool size contracted markedly in all the Cyp7a1(-/-) mice, the female Cyp7a1(-/-) mice maintained a larger, more cholic acid-rich pool than their male counterparts. Intestinal cholesterol absorption in the Cyp7a1(-/-) males fell from 46% to 3%, and in the matching females from 58% to 17%. Bile acid synthesis in Cyp7a1(+/+) males and females was increased 2-fold by cholesterol feeding, and 4-fold by cholestyramine treatment, but was not changed in matching Cyp7a1(-/-) mice by either of these manipulations. In the Cyp7a1(-/-) mice fed cholesterol, hepatic cholesterol concentrations increased only marginally in the males, but rose almost 3-fold in the females. CYP7A1 activity and mRNA levels were greater in females than in males, and were increased by cholesterol feeding in both sexes. CYP27 activity and mRNA levels did not vary as a function of CYP7A1 genotype, gender, or dietary cholesterol intake. We conclude that in the mouse the rate of bile acid synthesis via alternative pathways is unresponsive to changes in the enterohepatic flux of cholesterol and bile acid, and that factors governing gender-related differences in bile acid synthesis, pool size, and pool composition play an important role in determining the impact of CYP7A1 deficiency on cholesterol homeostasis in this species. 相似文献

Hepatic cholesterol and bile acid metabolism and intestinal cholesterol absorption in scavenger receptor class B type I-deficient mice 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), which is expressed in the liver and intestine, plays a critical role in cholesterol metabolism in rodents. While hepatic SR-BI expression controls high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol metabolism, intestinal SR-BI has been proposed to facilitate cholesterol absorption. To evaluate further the relevance of SR-BI in the enterohepatic circulation of cholesterol and bile salts, we studied biliary lipid secretion, hepatic sterol content and synthesis, bile acid metabolism, fecal neutral sterol excretion, and intestinal cholesterol absorption in SR-BI knockout mice. SR-BI deficiency selectively impaired biliary cholesterol secretion, without concomitant changes in either biliary bile acid or phospholipid secretion. Hepatic total and unesterified cholesterol contents were slightly increased in SR-BI-deficient mice, while sterol synthesis was not significantly changed. Bile acid pool size and composition, as well as fecal bile acid excretion, were not altered in SR-BI knockout mice. Intestinal cholesterol absorption was somewhat increased and fecal sterol excretion was slightly decreased in SR-BI knockout mice relative to controls. These findings establish the critical role of hepatic SR-BI expression in selectively controlling the utilization of HDL cholesterol for biliary secretion. In contrast, SR-BI expression is not essential for intestinal cholesterol absorption. 相似文献

Ghrelin is a unique peptide gut hormone that requires post-translational modification to stimulate both feeding and growth hormone release. Ghrelin O-acyltransferase (GOAT) was identified as a specific acyl-transferase for ghrelin, and recent genetic deletion studies of the Goat gene (Goat(-/-)) uncovered the role of ghrelin in the regulation of glucose homeostasis. To further understand the physiological functions of the GOAT/ghrelin system, we have conducted a metabolomic and microarray profile of Goat-null mice, as well as determined Goat expression in different tissues using the lacZ reporter gene. Serum metabolite profile analysis revealed that Goat(-/-) mice exhibited increased secondary bile acids >2.5-fold. This was attributed to increased mRNA and protein expression of the ileal sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ISBT) in the intestinal and biliary tract. Increased expression of additional solute carrier proteins, including Slc5a12 (>10-fold) were also detected in the small intestine and bile duct. Goat staining was consistently observed in the pituitary glands, stomach, and intestines, and to a lesser extent in the gallbladder and pancreatic duct. This is the first report that the GOAT/ghrelin system regulates bile acid metabolism, and these findings suggest a novel function of GOAT in the regulation of intestinal bile acid reabsorption.. 相似文献

Intestinal cholesterol absorption is a major determinant of plasma low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentrations. Ezetimibe (SCH 58235) and its analogs SCH 48461 and SCH 58053 are novel potent inhibitors of cholesterol absorption whose mechanism of action is unknown. These studies investigated the effect of SCH 58053 on cholesterol metabolism in female 129/Sv mice. In mice fed a low cholesterol rodent diet containing SCH 58053, cholesterol absorption was reduced by 46% and fecal neutral sterol excretion was increased 67%, but biliary lipid composition and bile acid synthesis, pool size, and pool composition were unchanged. When the dietary cholesterol content was increased either 10- or 50-fold, those animals given SCH 58053 manifested lower hepatic and biliary cholesterol concentrations than did their untreated controls. Cholesterol feeding increased the relative mRNA level for adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), ABC transporter G5 (ABCG5), and ABC transporter G8 (ABCG8) in the jejunum, and of ABCG5 and ABCG8 in the liver, but the magnitude of this increase was generally less if the mice were given SCH 58053. We conclude that the inhibition of cholesterol absorption effected by this new class of agents is not mediated via changes in either the size or composition of the intestinal bile acid pool, or the level of mRNA expression of proteins that facilitate cholesterol efflux from the enterocyte, but rather may involve disruption of the uptake of luminal sterol across the microvillus membrane. 相似文献

We recently reported that tyrosine-conjugated bile acids, when injected intravenously into bile-fistula rats, are extracted by the liver and secreted intact into bile with an efficiency similar to that seen for taurocholate. Now the effect of tyrosine and glycyltyrosine conjugation of bile acids on ileal absorption has been studied in Wistar rats. 125I-labelled tyrosine- and glycyltyrosine-conjugated bile acid or [14C]taurocholate was injected in 400 microliters aliquots of physiological saline buffered to pH 7.8 into the ileal lumen of bile-fistula rats. Recovery of bile salts in bile was taken as proof of ileal absorption. In comparison with taurocholate, ileal absorption was about 10% less for cholyltyrosine and chenodeoxycholyltyrosine and about 50% less for deoxycholyltyrosine. Thus, tyrosine-conjugated bile acids are absorbed by the ileum and excreted into bile and may undergo enterohepatic circulation. Low recoveries of deoxycholyltyrosine relative to deoxycholylglycine suggested that side chain structure was important for ileal absorption of 3 alpha,12 alpha-dihydroxy bile acids. Elongation of cholic acid to form cholylglycyltyrosine markedly reduced 90-min cumulative ileal absorption relative to cholyltyrosine. Although initial rates of recovery of cholylglycyltyrosine were comparable to those of the other bile acids, very little further absorption was seen in the last hour of the experiment, suggesting that this compound was rapidly degraded within the intestinal lumen. 相似文献

Bile acid malabsorption, which in patients leads to excessive fecal bile acid excretion and diarrhea, is characterized by a vicious cycle in which the feedback regulation of bile acid synthesis is interrupted, resulting in additional bile acid production. Feedback regulation of bile acid synthesis is under the control of an endocrine pathway wherein activation of the nuclear bile acid receptor, farnesoid X receptor (FXR), induces enteric expression of the hormone, fibroblast growth factor 15 (FGF15). In liver, FGF15 acts together with FXR-mediated expression of small heterodimer partner to repress bile acid synthesis. Here, we show that the FXR-FGF15 pathway is disrupted in mice lacking apical ileal bile acid transporter, a model of bile acid malabsorption. Treatment of Asbt-/- mice with either a synthetic FXR agonist or FGF15 downregulates hepatic cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase mRNA levels, decreases bile acid pool size, and reduces fecal bile acid excretion. These findings suggest that FXR agonists or FGF15 could be used therapeutically to interrupt the cycle of excessive bile acid production in patients with bile acid malabsorption. 相似文献

Ileal bile acid transport regulates bile acid pool, synthesis, and plasma cholesterol levels differently in cholesterol-fed rats and rabbits 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Xu G Shneider BL Shefer S Nguyen LB Batta AK Tint GS Arrese M Thevananther S Ma L Stengelin S Kramer W Greenblatt D Pcolinsky M Salen G 《Journal of lipid research》2000,41(2):298-304
We investigated the effect of ileal bile acid transport on the regulation of classic and alternative bile acid synthesis in cholesterol-fed rats and rabbits. Bile acid pool sizes, fecal bile acid outputs (synthesis rates), and the activities of cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (classic bile acid synthesis) and cholesterol 27-hydroxylase (alternative bile acid synthesis) were related to ileal bile acid transporter expression (ileal apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter, ASBT). Plasma cholesterol levels rose 2.1-times in rats (98 +/- 19 mg/dl) and 31-times (986 +/- 188 mg/dl) in rabbits. The bile acid pool size remained constant (55 +/- 17 mg vs. 61 +/- 18 mg) in rats but doubled (254 +/- 46 to 533 +/- 53 mg) in rabbits. ASBT protein expression did not change in rats but rose 31% (P < 0.05) in rabbits. Fecal bile acid outputs that reflected bile acid synthesis increased 2- and 2.4-times (P < 0.05) in cholesterol-fed rats and rabbits, respectively. Cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase activity rose 33% (24 +/- 2.4 vs. 18 +/- 1.6 pmol/mg/min, P < 0.01) and mRNA levels increased 50% (P < 0.01) in rats but decreased 68% and 79%, respectively, in cholesterol-fed rabbits. Cholesterol 27-hydroxylase activity remained unchanged in rats but rose 62% (P < 0.05) in rabbits. Classic bile acid synthesis (cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase) was inhibited in rabbits because an enlarged bile acid pool developed from enhanced ileal bile acid transport. In contrast, in rats, cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase was stimulated but the bile acid pool did not enlarge because ASBT did not change. Therefore, although bile acid synthesis was increased via different pathways in rats and rabbits, enhanced ileal bile acid transport was critical for enlarging the bile acid pool size that exerted feedback regulation on cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase in rabbits. 相似文献

Cytochrome P450s in the synthesis of cholesterol and bile acids--from mouse models to human diseases
The present review describes the transgenic mouse models that have been designed to evaluate the functions of the cytochrome P450s involved in cholesterol and bile acid synthesis, as well as their link with disease. The knockout of cholesterogenic Cyp51 is embrionally lethal, with symptoms of Antley-Bixler syndrome occurring in mice, whereas the evidence for this association is conflicting in humans. Disruption of Cyp7a1 from classic bile acid synthesis in mice leads to either increased postnatal death or a milder phenotype with elevated serum cholesterol. The latter is similar to the case in humans, where CYP7A1 mutations associate with high plasma low-density lipoprotein and hepatic cholesterol content, as well as deficient bile acid excretion. Disruption of Cyp8b1 from an alternative bile acid pathway results in the absence of cholic acid and a reduced absorption of dietary lipids; however, the human CYP8B1 polymorphism fails to explain differences in bile acid composition. Unexpectedly, apparently normal Cyp27a1(-/-) mice still synthesize bile acids that originate from the compensatory pathway. In humans, CYP27A1 mutations cause cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, suggesting that only mice can compensate for the loss of alternative bile acid synthesis. In line with this, Cyp7b1 knockouts are also apparently normal, whereas human CYP7B1 mutations lead to a congenital bile acid synthesis defect in children or spastic paraplegia in adults. Mouse knockouts of the brain-specific Cyp46a1 have reduced brain cholesterol excretion, whereas, in humans, CYP46A1 polymorphisms associate with cognitive impairment. At present, cytochrome P450 family 39 is poorly characterized. Despite important physiological differences between humans and mice, mouse models prove to be an invaluable tool for understanding the multifactorial facets of cholesterol and bile acid-related disorders. 相似文献

Normal and alloxan-diabetic male mice (Crj-ICR) were fed a diet containing 0.5% cholesterol for 5 and 10 weeks, and gallbladder bile was analyzed for cholesterol, phospholipids and bile acids, feces for sterols and bile acids, and plasma and liver for cholesterol, phospholipids, and triglycerides. Normal mice developed no gallstones but the diabetic mice developed cholesterol gallstones with an incidence of 70% by 5 weeks and 80% by 10 weeks after feeding of the cholesterol diet. Diabetic mice fed the ordinary diet also developed stones (23%) by 10 weeks. In the diabetic mice, the gallbladder was enlarged about threefold, and biliary lipid concentration, diet intake, and fecal excretion of sterols and bile acids increased but body weight decreased. Cholic acid and beta-muricholic acid comprised over 40% each of the total biliary bile acids in normal mice, but cholic acid increased to about 80% and beta-muricholic acid decreased to a few percent in the diabetic mice. Fecal excretion of bile acids increased after cholesterol feeding in both normal and diabetic mice, but the increased bile acid in the normal animals was beta-muricholic acid and that in the diabetic mice was deoxycholic acid. The mice that developed gallstones showed a marked increase in biliary cholesterol value and decreases in gallbladder bile and bile acid concentration, but no difference in biliary and fecal bile acid composition, bile acid synthesis, fecal sterols, or plasma and liver lipid levels. Cholesterol absorption was increased in the diabetic mice when examined by plasma 14C/3H ratio and fecal 14C-labeled sterol excretion after a single oral administration of [14C]cholesterol and a simultaneous intravenous injection of [3H]cholesterol. These data led to the conclusion that cholesterol gallstones developed in alloxan-diabetic mice fed excess cholesterol, due to the hyperphagia and the enhancement of cholesterol absorption caused by increases in the synthesis and secretion of cholic acid. 相似文献

Bile acid synthesis: down-regulation by monohydroxy bile acids 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The regulation of bile acid synthesis was studied in rabbits after interruption of the enterohepatic circulation by choledochoureteral anastomosis. Total daily bile acid output was 772 +/- 130 (SD) mumol/24 h, of which greater than 95% was glycocholic acid. Administration of deoxycholic or cholic acid or their conjugates (300-800 mumol) or gall-bladder bile failed to down-regulate endogenous bile acid synthesis. In contrast, chenodeoxycholic acid administration did down-regulate bile acid synthesis, but this effect was related to the formation and excretion of lithocholic acid. This observation was confirmed by the finding that i.v. infusion of 10-20 mumol of either lithocholic acid or 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid significantly reduced cholic acid synthesis. Thus monohydroxy bile acids, derived from either hepatic or intestinal sources, participate in the down-regulation of bile acid synthesis. 相似文献

1. Isolated rat liver was perfused with heparinized whole blood under physiological pressure resulting in the secretion of bile at about the rate observed in vivo. 2. The preparation remained metabolically active for 4h and was apparently normal in function and microscopic appearance. 3. When the perfusate plasma and liver cholesterol pool was labelled by the introduction of [2-(14)C]mevalonic acid the specific radioactivity of the perfusate cholesterol increased. The biliary acids (cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid) were labelled and had the same specific radioactivity. 4. Livers removed from rats immediately after, and 40h after, the start of total biliary drainage, were perfused; increased excretion rates of both cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid were found when the liver donors had been subjected to biliary drainage. 5. The incorporation of [2-(14)C]mevalonic acid or rat lipoprotein labelled with [(14)C]cholesterol into bile acids was studied. 6. A dissociation between the mass of bile acid excreted and the rate of incorporation of (14)C was found. This was attributed to the changing specific radioactivity of the cholesterol pool acting as the immediate bile acid precursor. 相似文献

To study the effect of cholecystectomy on the regulation of classic and alternative bile acid syntheses, gallbladder-intact (n = 20) and cholecystectomized (n = 20) New Zealand White rabbits were fed either chow or chow with 2% cholesterol (3 g/day). After 10 days, bile fistulas were constructed in half of each rabbit group to recover and measure the bile acid pool and biliary bile acid flux. After cholesterol feeding, the bile acid pool size increased from 268 +/- 55 to 444 +/- 77 mg (P < 0.01) with a 2-fold rise in the biliary bile acid flux in intact rabbits but did not expand the bile acid pool (270 +/- 77 vs. 276 +/- 62 mg), nor did the biliary bile acid flux increase in cholecystectomized rabbits. Ileal apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter protein increased 46% from 93 +/- 6 to 136 +/- 23 units/mg (P < 0.01) in the intact rabbits but did not change in cholecystectomized rabbits (104 +/- 14 vs. 99 +/- 19 units/mg) after cholesterol feeding. Cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase activity was inhibited 59% (P < 0.001) while cholesterol 27-hydroxylase activity rose 83% (P < 0.05) after cholesterol feeding in the intact rabbits but neither enzyme activity changed significantly in cholesterol-fed cholecystectomized rabbits. Fecal bile acid outputs reflecting bile acid synthesis increased significantly in the intact but not in the cholecystectomized rabbits fed cholesterol.Removal of the gallbladder prevented expansion of the bile acid pool after cholesterol feeding as seen in intact rabbits because ileal bile acid transport did not increase. As a result, cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase was not inhibited. 相似文献

The enterohepatic circulation and the inability of upper small intestine to actively absorb bile acid are physiological adaptations for maintaining adequate bile acid concentrations in the intestinal lumen for use in lipid digestion and absorption. Certain lipids inhibit bile acid absorption suggesting a possible role of lipids in this scheme. Using isolated intestinal villi preparations of hamster ileum, experiments were conducted to assess the degree of inhibition of bile acid absorption by lipids of various classes and to determine the possible mechanism of inhibition. At an initial bile acid concentration of 10.0 mM, triolein significantly reduced villus uptake of taurocholic acid by 50% and cholic acid by 38%. This inhibition was similar to the degree of inhibition produced by oleic acid (58 and 48%, respectively). Likewise, representative medium-chain and short-chain triglycerides inhibited taurocholic acid uptake by 35 and 39%, respectively. Results show that triglycerides as well as oleic acid inhibit ileal bile acid uptake. Neither oleic acid nor triolein altered bile acid uptake when micelles were absent from incubation solutions. Furthermore, lipids did not alter absorption of a nonmicelle-forming bile acid, taurodehydrocholic acid. These data imply that dietary lipids in general may inhibit intestinal bile acid absorption. Oleic acid significantly reduced the intermicellar bile acid concentration from 8.9 +/- 0.2 mM to 3.9 +/- 0.2 mM while tributyrin, tricaprylin, and triolein had no effect. Results from these studies suggest that the mechanism of inhibition appears to be an enhancement of micelle formation. We speculate that this mechanism may be an additional mechanism for maintaining adequate luminal bile acid concentrations and may be the pathophysiologic mechanism contributing to bile acid malabsorption in cystic fibrosis. 相似文献
