High concentrations of glutathione (GSH) and two of its constituent amino acids, glutamate and glycine, are normally found in rat bile. To examine the role of intrabiliary GSH hydrolysis as a source of these amino acids, as well as of cystine in bile, the biliary excretion of GSH and free amino acids was measured in normal male Sprague-Dawley rats; in animals given either phenol 3,6-dibromphthalein disulfonate or diethyl maleate, inhibitors of GSH secretion into bile; and after a retrograde intrabiliary infusion of (alpha S, 5S)-alpha-amino-3-chloro-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid (AT-125), an irreversible inhibitor of gamma-glutamyl transferase activity. Total concentration of amino acids in normal rat bile ranged from 4 to 7 mM and was more than double the concentration in plasma (2-3 mM). Although most amino acids were detected in bile, glutamate and glycine were the most prevalent (1.2 and 1.0 mM, respectively), followed by the branched chain amino acids valine and leucine. The administration of phenol 3,6-dibromphthalein disulfonate (180 mumol/kg, intravenous), or of diethyl maleate (1 mmol/kg, intraperitoneal), resulted in a marked decrease in the biliary excretion of GSH, as well as a decrease in the excretion of glutamate, cystine, and glycine; however, the effects of these agents were not specific for the amino acid constituents of GSH. Following retrograde intrabiliary infusion of AT-125 (10 mumol/kg), there was an immediate and sustained doubling in the rate of biliary excretion of both GSH and glutathione disulfide and a marked decrease in the rate of excretion of glutamate. Varying the dose of AT-125 (0-20 mumol/kg) resulted in an inverse linear relation between hepatic gamma-glutamyl transferase activity and the biliary excretion of intact GSH. These findings suggest that most, if not all, of the free glutamate in excreted bile is formed from the intrabiliary hydrolysis of GSH. Prior to hydrolysis within the biliary tree, substantial concentrations of GSH must be transported from liver cells into bile; minimal canalicular concentrations of this tripeptide are estimated at 5 mM. 相似文献

Cholestasis and enhanced biliary leakage of proteins such as lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and albumin are known to be induced by infusions of relatively toxic bile salts such as taurocholate (TC) and taurochenodeoxycholate (TCDC). Tauroursodeoxycholate (TUDC) was previously shown to prevent these bile abnormalities when simultaneously infused (1-5). In the present study, we examined whether tauro beta-muricholate (T beta-MC) has a similar effect. The enhanced biliary excretion of LDH and albumin induced by the infusion of TCDC at a rate of 0.4 mumol/min/100 g was markedly prevented by the simultaneous infusion of T beta-MC or TUDC at a rate one-fourth that of TCDC. Increased LDH level in plasma and hemolysis caused by the infusion of TCDC were also reduced by either T beta-MC or TUDC. These results indicate that T beta-MC has a preventive effect on TCDC-induced hepatobiliary changes, which is as efficient as that of TUDC as shown previously, suggesting that the 7 beta-hydroxy group is important for this hepatoprotective effect. Furthermore, our results suggest that beta-muricholic acid may also have clinical value since current reports demonstrate a beneficial effect of ursodeoxycholic acid on a variety of cholestatic conditions, including primary biliary cirrhosis. 相似文献

A method was developed to estimate the relative contributions of paracellular and transcellular pathways to the total biliary clearance of sucrose in isolated perfused rat liver. When livers were perfused with a sucrose-containing medium (1 mM), biliary sucrose concentration reached an equilibrium of 165 +/- 27 microM within 10 min, without further significant change up to 40 min. After removal of sucrose from the perfusate, the decrease of the sucrose concentration in bile was found to obey biphasic first-order kinetics, showing a rapid initial decrease (half-life 3.3 +/- 0.5 min) and then a slower decrease (half-life 29.4 +/- 5.7 min). Both phases of decrease were further characterized. Pretreating rats with the cholestatic agents alpha-naphthyl isothiocyanate (ANIT), oestradiol valerate (OV) and colchicine increased the biliary equilibrium concentration and decreased the half-life of the fast phase of the biliary sucrose elimination. The slow phase was unaffected in the livers of ANIT- and OV-treated rats. The slow phase of biliary sucrose efflux was sensitive to colchicine treatment. A close correlation was observed between the slow-phase fraction of the biliary sucrose and the corresponding sucrose content of the liver. By quantitative analysis of the efflux kinetics the relative contribution of the paracellular pathway to the biliary clearance of sucrose was estimated to be 83 +/- 2% in control livers, which increased to about 90% in livers of pretreated animals. These results are important in view of the use of sucrose in evaluating the paracellular-pathway permeability in intra- and extra-hepatic cholestasis. 相似文献

The control of biliary phospholipid and cholesterol secretions by bile acid was studied by using the technique of retrograde intrabiliary injection. Taurocholate (TC), a moderately hydrophobic bile acid, taurodehydrocholate (TDHC), a hydrophilic non-micelle-forming bile acid, and 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]propane-1-sulphonate (CHAPS), a detergent, were individually administered by retrograde intrabiliary injection (RII) into the biliary tree, and bile acids, phospholipids and cholesterol subsequently appearing in the bile were measured. TC (1.3 mumol; 45 microliters) injected retrogradely provoked a 3.5-fold increase in biliary phospholipid output for 40 min, as compared with the saline control. Injection of 2.7 mumol of TC (90 microliters) caused a 7.5-fold increase in phospholipid output, which reached a peak at 12 min after RII, and phospholipid output continued for 40 min. Cholesterol output was also elicited under these conditions, showing both dose-dependency and extended secretion. Injection of 1.8 mumol of TDHC caused very little increase in either biliary phospholipid or cholesterol. Injection of 0.9 mumol of CHAPS (45 microliters) provoked a single substantial peak of phospholipid output in the 3 min bile sample. T.l.c. analysis of the phospholipid extracts of the bile collected after each compound showed, for TC, a single compound which co-migrated with the phosphatidylcholine standard, whereas for CHAPS substantial amounts of other phospholipids were present. 相似文献

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography is valuable in the evaluation of biliary tract disorders. A 50-year-old Italian woman developed biloptysis 1 year after cholecystectomy because of intrabiliary rupture of a hydatid cyst with secondary infection, which resulted in intrathoracic rupture and communication with the bronchial tree. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography showed the cause and pathway of the fistulous tract by outlining the biliary tree, abscess cavity and communication with the right upper lobe bronchus. This technique appears to be well suited to the investigation of patients with biliary-bronchial fistula. 相似文献

Taurolithocholate (TLC), a natural bile salt, induces selective impairment on canalicular membrane of the hepatocyte, which seems to be a major determinant of its cholestatic effect in experimental animals. In order to extend existing studies about the effects of TLC on bile secretion, we examined in TLC-treated rats the biliary excretion of compounds that are transported to canalicular membrane via vesicles, such as lipids and proteins. The single intravenous injection of TLC (3 mumol/100 g body wt.) inhibited transiently the biliary bile salt excretion, while the biliary excretion of lipids (i.e., cholesterol and phospholipids) and proteins remained inhibited even though the biliary excretion and composition of bile salts were normalized. Under such a condition, TLC also inhibited the transcellular vesicular pathway to the exogenous protein horseradish peroxidase entry into bile, without altering the paracellular biliary access of the protein. The hepatic uptake of horseradish peroxidase was unaffected by TLC-treatment. The results indicate that TLC can inhibit the biliary excretion of compounds that reach the canaliculus via a vesicular pathway, such as lipids and proteins, by a mechanism not related to a defective bile salt excretion. Possible explanations for these findings are discussed. 相似文献

Injection dome leakage was found to be the cause for partial disappearance of the saline solution injected into some tissue expanders. When the injection domes of 22 consecutively removed tissue expanders were checked, we found that the average leakage pressure of these was 32 mmHg, with a range of 8 to 110 mmHg. When the patients were lying on their expanders, the weight of the corresponding body part caused intraluminal pressures of up to 90 mmHg in their expanders. Following removal of the expanders, the total leakage was calculated quantitatively and found to be maximally over 50 percent of the injected volume in some instances. The leakage flow through the injection dome in seven consecutively removed expanders was checked at pressures of 25, 50, and 75 mmHg over 30 minutes and was found to be slow. The possibility of injection dome leakage should be kept in mind, however, as a potential complication under unfavorable conditions. At the same time, we want to emphasize that in most instances tissue expanders function quite well and in predictable ways. 相似文献

Intracerebroventricular bombesin alters arterial pressure and gastrointestinal transit in rats. In order to evaluate the influence of bombesin on arterial and gastric intraluminal pressure in a specific site in the central nervous system, we microinjected bombesin into the medial subnucleus of the nucleus tractus solitarius (mNTS) in 28 rats anesthetized with choralose. Bombesin (78 pmole in 25 nl), but not vehicle, caused an increase of tonic gastric intraluminal pressure (2.6 +/- 0.5 cm H2O) and of phasic gastric intraluminal pressures but did not acutely alter arterial pressure. The effect on tonic and phasic gastric intraluminal pressure was dose-dependent. The threshold dose was 7.8 pmole. Intravenous bombesin caused a similar dose-dependent rise in tonic gastric intraluminal pressure but did not significantly change the mean amplitude of phasic gastric intraluminal pressures. Transection of the cervical spinal cord and both cervical vagus nerves blocked the effect of centrally but not peripherally administered bombesin. We conclude that bombesin microinjected into the mNTS does not influence arterial pressure but does raise tonic and phasic gastric intraluminal pressures. Bombesin may act in the NTS as a central modulator of gastric motility. 相似文献

The effect of an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration on tight-junctional permeability in rat liver was studied by using the calcium ionophore A23187. Infusion of 100 microliters of dimethyl sulphoxide containing various amounts of A23187 over 30 min into isolated perfused livers was followed by a pulse of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) under single-pass conditions. The first biliary HRP peak, a measure of junctional permeability, was increased 4-fold with 100 micrograms of A23187. There were, however, no significant effects on bile flow or on aspartate aminotransferase leakage as compared with the control at this dosage, and thus the increase in junctional permeability was occurring without evidence of appreciable cholestatic or hepatocellular damage. Higher dosages of A23187, however, caused not only an increase in HRP peak height but also changes in bile flow and increases in aminotransferase leakage, indicating more extensive effects at these higher dosages. A second peak of HRP secretion, occurring 20-25 min after the HRP pulse, was also elevated approx. 3.5-fold; this may indicate that pinocytosis and transcellular movement of HRP are also increased under these conditions. 相似文献

A number of studies show a close temporal relationship between the rate of change in muscle thickness as detected by high-frequency intraluminal ultrasonography (HFIUS) and intraluminal pressure measured by manometry. There is a marked variability in esophageal contraction amplitude from one swallow to another at a given level in the esophagus and along the length of the esophagus. Furthermore, peristaltic pressures are higher in the distal compared with the proximal esophagus. The goal of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the baseline and peak muscle thickness and the contraction amplitude during swallow-induced contractions along the length of the esophagus. Fifteen normal subjects were studied using simultaneous esophageal pressures and HFIUS or HFIUS alone. Recordings were made during baseline and standardized swallows in the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) and at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 cm above the LES. HFIUS images were digitized, and esophageal muscle thickness and peak contraction amplitudes were measured. In the resting state, muscle thickness is higher in the LES compared with the rest of the esophagus. Baseline muscle thickness is also significantly higher at 2 cm vs. 10 cm above the LES. In a given subject and among different subjects, there is a good relationship between peak muscle thickness and peak peristaltic pressures (r = 0.55) at all sites along the length of the esophagus. The positive correlation between pressure and muscle thickness implies that the mean circumferential wall stress is fairly uniform from one swallow to another, irrespective of the contraction amplitude. 相似文献

We studied the effects of the infusion of lithocholate and lithocholate-3-sulfate and 3-glucuronide in rats (0.29 mumol/min per 100 g body weight for 40 min) on bile flow, together with their biliary excretion and metabolism. Lithocholate-glucuronide had a higher cholestatic effect than lithocholate, whereas lithocholate-sulfate had almost no effect on bile flow. Lithocholate was mainly converted to taurine or glucuronide conjugates in the bile, serum and liver and hydroxylation of the tauro-conjugate proceeded. Lithocholate-sulfate was almost completely excreted in the bile, mainly as tauro-conjugate. Lithocholate-glucuronide was excreted in bile almost without conjugation, while some taurine conjugation occurred in the serum and liver. These results suggest that the poor biotransformation of lithocholate-glucuronide is related to its higher cholestatic potency than lithocholate. 相似文献

Intravenous infusion of bilirubin (BR) at 171 micrograms/min/kg into rabbits resulted in biliary concentration of BR increasing from 3.8 (control) to 243 mg/dl and BR excretion increasing from 1.7 to 66 micrograms/min/kg. BR infusion resulted in biliary concentrations of biliverdin (BV) increasing from 9.1 to 30 g/dl and BV excretion increasing from 4.2 to 8.2 micrograms/min/kg. BR infusion produced a progressive decline in bile flow. BV was the predominant bile pigment in control rabbits fed either an alfalfa-based or chlorophyll-free diet. These results imply that rabbits can oxidize BR to BV. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo assess the feasibility of screening for cholestatic hepatobiliary disease and extrahepatic biliary atresia by using tandem mass spectrometry to measure conjugated bile acids in dried blood spots obtained from newborn infants at 7-10 days of age for the Guthrie test.SettingThree tertiary referral clinics and regional neonatal screening laboratories.DesignUnused blood spots from the Guthrie test were retrieved for infants presenting with cholestatic hepatobiliary disease and from the two cards stored on either side of each card from an index child. Concentrations of conjugated bile acids measured by tandem mass spectrometry in the two groups were compared.Results218 children with cholestatic hepatobiliary disease were eligible for inclusion in the study. Two children without a final diagnosis and five who presented at <14 days of age were excluded. Usable blood spots were obtained from 177 index children and 708 comparison children. Mean concentrations of all four bile acid species were significantly raised in children with cholestatic hepatobiliary disease and extrahepatic biliary atresia compared with the unaffected children (P<0.0001). Of 177 children with cholestatic hepatobiliary disease, 104 (59%) had a total bile acid concentration >33 μmol/l (97.5th centile value for comparison group). Of the 61 with extrahepatic biliary atresia, 47 (77%) had total bile acid concentrations >33 μmol/l. Taurotrihydroxycholanoate and total bile acid concentrations were the best predictors of both conditions. For all cholestatic hepatobiliary disease, a cut off level of total bile acid concentration of 30 μmol/l gave a sensitivity of 62% and a specificity of 96%, while the corresponding values for extrahepatic biliary atresia were 79% and 96%.ConclusionMost children who present with extrahepatic biliary atresia and other forms of cholestatic hepatobiliary disease have significantly raised concentrations of conjugated bile acids as measured by tandem mass spectrometry at the time when samples are taken for the Guthrie test. Unfortunately the separation between the concentrations in these infants and those in the general population is not sufficient to make mass screening for cholestatic hepatobiliary disease a feasible option with this method alone.
Key messages
- The prognosis of cholestatic hepatobiliary disease in infancy, in particular biliary atresia, is improved by early detection
- Infants destined to present with cholestatic jaundice in the first few months of life have raised concentrations of bile acids in the blood spots obtained at 7-10 days for current neonatal screening programmes
- Tandem mass spectrometry can be used to detect this marker of neonatal cholestasis
- Unfortunately there is too much overlap between bile acid concentrations in infants with cholestasis and those in control infants for this to be used as a single screening test for cholestatic hepatobiliary disease in general and biliary atresia
- Tandem mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for neonatal screening but every potential application must be carefully assessed

Cholangiocytes, epithelial cells that line the biliary epithelium, are the primary target cells for cholangiopathies including primary sclerosing cholangitis and primary biliary cholangitis. Quiescent cholangiocytes respond to biliary damage and acquire an activated neuroendocrine phenotype to maintain the homeostasis of the liver. The typical response of cholangiocytes is proliferation leading to bile duct hyperplasia, which is a characteristic of cholestatic liver diseases. Current studies have identified various signaling pathways that are associated with cholangiocyte proliferation/loss and liver fibrosis in cholangiopathies using human samples and rodent models. Although recent studies have demonstrated that extracellular vesicles and microRNAs could be mediators that regulate these messenger/receptor axes, further studies are required to confirm their roles. This review summarizes current studies of biliary response and cholangiocyte proliferation during cholestatic liver injury with particular emphasis on the secretin/secretin receptor axis.

We report our experience with an ultrasound system to measure esophageal varix pressure in an in vitro model. The ultrasound system consists of a 12.5 MHz frequency intraluminal ultrasound probe, a water infusion catheter, and a manometry catheter, all contained within a nondistensible latex bag. Esophagi and external jugular veins were harvested from five pigs. The vein and ultrasound system were placed inside the esophagus. One end of the vein was connected to a water reservoir to modulate its pressure; the other end was connected in two different ways to simulate hydrodynamic and hydrostatic flow conditions. The bag was inflated with water until vein occlusion was discernible on the ultrasound images. The influences of vein pressure, vein cross-sectional area and esophageal elasticity on the ultrasound measurement of vein pressure were assessed. A total of 108 trials were performed at nine different vein pressures. Complete vein occlusion occurred when the bag pressure was slightly greater (1.4 +/- 0.7 mmHg) than the vein pressure. For a vein pressure of 25 mmHg, the average occlusion and opening pressures were 27 +/- 0.2 and 25.7 +/- 0.3 mmHg, respectively (P < .05) suggesting that the vein opening pressure on the ultrasound images is more accurate than the vein closing pressure. In conclusion, the ultrasound technique can accurately measure intravariceal pressure in vitro. The bag pressure at the point of vein reopening is the best determinant of the vein pressure. 相似文献

We sought to examine the hemodynamic determinants and clinical application of the peak acceleration rate of early (Ea) diastolic velocity of the mitral annulus by tissue Doppler. Simultaneous left atrial and left ventricular (LV) catheterization and Doppler echocardiography were performed in 10 dogs. Preload was altered using volume infusion and caval occlusion, whereas myocardial lusitropic state was altered with dobutamine and esmolol. The clinical application was examined in 190 consecutive patients (55 control, 41 impaired relaxation, 46 pseudonormal, and 48 restrictive LV filling). In addition, in 60 consecutive patients, we examined the relation between it and mean wedge pressure with simultaneous Doppler echocardiography and right heart catheterization. In canine studies, a significant positive relation was present between peak acceleration rate of Ea and transmitral pressure gradient only in the stages with normal or enhanced LV relaxation, but with no relation in the stages where the time constant of LV relaxation (tau) was > or =50 ms. Its hemodynamic determinants were tau, LV minimal pressure, and transmitral pressure gradient. In clinical studies, peak acceleration rate of Ea was significantly lower in patients with impaired LV relaxation irrespective of filling pressures (P < 0.001) and with similar accuracy to peak Ea velocity (area under the curve for septal and lateral peak acceleration rates: both 0.78) in identifying these patients. No significant relation was observed between peak acceleration rate and mean wedge pressure. Peak acceleration rate of Ea appears to be a useful index of LV relaxation but not of filling pressures and can be applied to identify patients with impaired LV relaxation irrespective of their filling pressures. 相似文献

Thirty three untreated patients being given cisplatin received metoclopramide (7 mg/kg) for antiemesis by either continuous or intermittent infusion in a random order. Each patient received intravenous dexamethasone in addition. High pressure liquid chromatography was used to measure plasma concentrations of metoclopramide. The two regimens were evaluated for antiemetic efficacy and the incidence of side effects. The intermittent metoclopramide regimen resulted in peak and trough plasma concentrations of metoclopramide with accumulation at eight hours, while the loading dose and continuous infusion resulted in mean plasma concentrations greater than 0.85 micrograms/ml (2.8 mumol/l) throughout the eight hour period. The continuous infusion was associated with a significant improvement in nausea and vomiting and reduction in diarrhoea. Major control of emesis (two episodes or fewer) was achieved in 27 patients receiving continuous metoclopramide compared with 18 receiving intermittent metoclopramide. 相似文献

Descending aortic dissection (DAD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Aortic wall stiffness is a variable often altered in DAD patients and potentially involved in long-term outcome. However, its relevance is still mostly unknown. To gain more detailed knowledge of how wall elasticity (compliance) might influence intraluminal haemodynamics in DAD, a lumped-parameter model was developed based on experimental data from a pulsatile hydraulic circuit and validated for 8 clinical scenarios. Next, the variations of intraluminal pressures and flows were assessed as a function of wall elasticity. In comparison with the most rigid-wall case, an increase in elasticity to physiological values was associated with a decrease in systolic and increase in diastolic pressures of up to 33% and 63% respectively, with a subsequent decrease in the pressure wave amplitude of up to 86%. Moreover, it was related to an increase in multidirectional intraluminal flows and transition of behaviour as 2 parallel vessels towards a vessel with a side-chamber. The model supports the extremely important role of wall elasticity as determinant of intraluminal pressures and flow patterns for DAD, and thus, the relevance of considering it during clinical assessment and computational modelling of the disease. 相似文献

Fecal stomal incontinence is a problem that continues to defy surgical treatment. Previous attempts to create continent stomas using dynamic myoplasty have had limited success due to denervation atrophy of the muscle flap used in the creation of the sphincter and because of muscle fatigue resulting from continuous electrical stimulation. To address the problem of denervation atrophy, a stomal sphincter was designed using the most caudal segment of the rectus abdominis muscle, preserving its intercostal innervation as well as its vascular supply. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether this rectus abdominis muscle island flap sphincter design could maintain stomal continence acutely. In this experiment, six dogs were used to create eight rectus abdominis island flap stoma sphincters around a segment of distal ileum. Initially, the intraluminal stomal pressures generated by the sphincter using different stimulation frequencies were determined. The ability of this stomal sphincter to generate continence at different intraluminal bowel pressures was then assessed. In all cases, the rectus abdominis muscle sphincter generated peak pressures well above those needed to maintain stomal continence (60 mmHg). In addition, each sphincter was able to maintain stomal continence at all intraluminal bowel pressures tested. 相似文献

In prior studies in man, we have demonstrated that pressure-induced hyperemia lasts for prolonged periods as compared to the short-term hyperemia created by proximal arterial occlusion. We have analyzed this phenomenon in our well-studied rat model of skin blood flow. Skin blood flow was measured using laser Doppler techniques in Wistar Kyoto rats at the back, a nutritively perfused site, and at the plantar surface of the paw, where arteriovenous anastomotic perfusion dominates. A customized pressure feedback control device was used to vary applied pressures. At the back, pressures in excess of 80 mmHg resulted in occlusion, whereas at the paw 150 mmHg was required. The peak hyperemic flow after release of pressure was comparable to that elicited by proximal arterial occlusion with a blood pressure cuff. However, the post pressure hyperemia peak descended to a plateau value, which was 50-100% greater than baseline and continued for up to 20 min while the peak following proximal arterial occlusion returned to baseline within 4 min. At the back, post pressure hyperemia reached a maximum after application of 100 mmHg pressure. The application of higher pressures than required for occlusion produced no greater hyperemic response. At the paw, maximum post pressure hyperemia occurred at 100 mmHg, although this pressure level was not totally occlusive. Higher pressures resulted in no greater hyperemia. At the back, 10 min of occlusion produced a maximal peak value whereas 1 min was sufficient at the paw. The application of pressure to a heated probe with subsequent release, produced a hyperemic response. Normalized to baseline blood flow, there was no difference between the hyperemic responses at basal skin temperature and at 44 degrees C. There is a prolonged hyperemic response following local pressure occlusion compared to a much shorter period following proximal ischemic occlusion. One can presume two different mechanisms, one related to ischemia and the other a separate pressure related phenomenon. The thermal vasodilatory response is additive, not synergistic with the post pressure hyperemia we have demonstrated. This finding suggests that different mechanisms are involved in thermal vasodilation and post pressure hyperemia. 相似文献
