3-N-Acetylglucosaminides of unconjugated, glycine- and taurine-conjugated bile acids have been synthesized. Bile acids appropriately protected were condensed with acetochloroglucosamine through the 3 alpha-hydroxyl group by means of the Koenigs-Knorr reaction using cadmium carbonate as a catalyst. Subsequent borohydride reduction and/or alkaline hydrolysis provided desired 3-N-acetylglucosaminides of unconjugated bile acids. Glycine-conjugates were obtained from N-acetylglucosaminides of unconjugated bile acids and ethyl glycinate by the carbodiimide method. The preparation of N-acetylglucosaminides of taurine-conjugates was attained by the Koenigs-Knorr reaction of bile acid p-nitrophenyl esters followed by condensation with taurine. 7-N-Acetylglucosaminides of ursodeoxycholates were prepared in a similar fashion. The convenient synthesis of 3-N-acetylglucosaminides of unconjugated bile acids is also described. 相似文献

Giardia lamblia: the role of conjugated and unconjugated bile salts in killing by human milk 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
F D Gillin 《Experimental parasitology》1987,63(1):74-83
Killing of Giardia lamblia trophozoites by nonimmune human milk in vitro is dependent upon the presence of cholate which activates the milk bile salt-stimulated lipase to cleave fatty acids from milk triglycerides. In the present studies, conjugated bile salts, which predominate in vivo, displayed striking differences from unconjugated bile salts in ability to support killing by milk. Human milk killed greater than 99% of the parasites in the presence of cholate, but not glycocholate or taurocholate. In contrast, after brief sonication which disrupts milk fat globules, milk killed G. lamblia after addition of either conjugated or unconjugated bile salts. Whereas cholate stimulated milk lipase to cleave triglycerides of either unsonicated or sonicated human milk, glycocholate or taurocholate stimulated lipolysis only in sonicated milk. Since the concentration of bile salts in the small intestine fluctuates, the effect of this variable on killing was examined. Each bile salt at and above its critical micellar concentration increased Giardia survival of human milk probably because it sequestered released fatty acids in micelles. This partial protection could be overcome by increasing the milk concentration. Human hepatic and gall bladder bile and artificial bile also activated human milk to kill at low concentrations but partly protected the parasite at higher concentrations. These studies show that conjugated bile salts can activate the bile salt-stimulated lipase of sonicated human milk to release fatty acids; and kill G. lamblia. Conversely, bile salts in concentrations above their critical micellar concentration sequester fatty acids and interfere with killing. Thus, nonimmune host secretions such as milk and bile may affect the course of infection by G. lamblia. 相似文献

Identification of unconjugated bile acids in human bile 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Unconjugated bile acids in the bile of healthy and diseased humans were determined qualitatively and quantitatively by means of gas-liquid chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, after their isolation by ion-exchange chromatography. In a healthy person and three patients with cholelithiasis, unconjugated bile acids comprised 0.1-0.4% of total biliary bile acids. The bile acid composition of the unconjugated fraction was quite different from that of the glycine- or taurine-conjugate fraction, in that it contained a relatively large proportion of unusual bile acids including C23 and C27 bile acids. In two patients with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, C22 and C23 bile acids were the major constituents of the biliary unconjugated bile acids, and comprised about 0.8% of total bile acids; no detectable amounts of C27 bile acids were found in their bile. The analysis of biliary unconjugated bile acids may be useful for the diagnosis of metabolic diseases concerning bile acids, particularly the accumulation or disappearance of unusual bile acids. 相似文献

AbstractDuring infection, the enteric pathogen Vibrio cholerae encounters a bile-containing environment. Previous studies have shown that bile and/or bile acids exert several effects on the virulence and physiology of the bacterial cells. These observations have led to the suggestion that bile acids may play a signaling role in infection. We have previously reported that the bile component deoxycholic acid blocks the general diffusion porin OmpT in a dose-dependent manner, presumably as it transits through the pore. V. cholerae colonizes the distal jejunum and ileum, where a mixture of various conjugated and unconjugated bile acids are found. In this work, we have used patch clamp electrophysiology to investigate the effects of six bile acids on OmpT. Two bile acids (deoxycholic and chenodeoxycholic acids) were found to block OmpT at physiological concentrations below 1 mM, while glycodeoxycholic acid was mildly effective and cholic, lithocholic and taurodeoxycholic acids were ineffective in this range. The block was also voltage-dependent. These observations suggest the presence of a specific binding site inside the OmpT pore. Since deconjugation is due to the activity of the endogenous flora, the preferential uptake of some unconjugated bile acids by OmpT may signal the presence of a hospitable environment. The results are also discussed in terms of the possible molecular interactions between the penetrating bile acid molecule and the channel wall. 相似文献

A new paper electrophoretic method for the separation of bile acids into five groups, (1) unconjugated, (2) glycine conjugates and (3) taurine conjugates, and (4) and (5) the respective monosulfates, is described. Rapid and accurate qualitative and quantitative estimations of each group are obtained by densitometry after internal standardization and phosphomolybdate color development. The technique can be done in the routine clinical laboratory and is useful for the detection of diseases affecting the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids. 相似文献

The effect of individual bile salts on alpha-amylase hydrolysis of Cibachron Blue starch was studied at pH 6.0. With sodium cholate, taurocholate and taurodeoxycholate, enzyme activity was increased to 150-160 percent of the control value, at a concentration of similar to 1 mmol/l bile salt. The increased activity extended up to 4 mmol/l. The bile salts sodium deoxycholate and taurochenodeoxycholate exerted activation and inhibition depending on the concentration. With deoxycholate (0.75 mmol/l), activation (150 percent) was evident, while inhibition was apparent above 2.5 mmol/l. With taurochenodeoxycholate maximum activity (135 percent) was observed at 0.25 mmol/l, while inhibition was evident above 1.5 mmol/l. Chenodeoxycholate and lithocholate exerted marked inhibition at concentrations as low as 0.5 mmol/l. Inhibition of alpha-amylase by chenodeoxycholate was competitive with both soluble and insoluble starch substrates. Since the pH of the jejunum is in the region of 6.0 the phenomenon of activation and inhibition of alpha-amylase by bile salts at this pH could be of physiological significance. 相似文献

The unconjugated bile salt, sodium deoxycholate, at a concentration of 0.5 mM was shown to inhibit the intestinal uptake of the amino acids L-glycine, L-leucine, L-proline, L-lysine and L-tyrosine in rats in vitro. This effect was acutely reversible except for the basis amino acid L-lysine and is therefore not simply due to tissue damage. These results, and the recent finding that sodium deoxycholate inhibits intestinal absorption of amino acids in vivo, suggest that impaired intestinal amino acid transport may contribute to hypoproteinaemia in patients with bacterial overgrowth in the upper small intestine in whom deoxycholate is present in the small intestinal lumen in excessive concentrations. 相似文献

Determination of individual conjugated bile acids in human bile 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A method has been developed and validated for the determination of the six major conjugated bile acids, cholesterol, and total phospholipids in bile of human subjects previously injected with 4-(14)C-cholesterol. The procedure is designed for use with 5-10 ml of duodenal or T-tube bile and eliminates difficulties associated with existing methods for bile acid determination, in particular the requirement for preliminary saponification under pressure or the use of paper chromatography. Saponification under pressure is employed only in steps where partial destruction of the steroid moiety of conjugated bile acids is not a crucial matter. A preliminary Folch extraction and washing step separated free cholesterol and phospholipids (bottom layer) from the six major conjugated bile acids (top layer). The conjugated bile acids were then fractionated cleanly by thin-layer chromatography to give four groups, the (14)C content of each of which was determined. A second aliquot of the top layer was used to determine (after deconjugation) the radioactivity ratio of deoxycholic acid to chenodeoxycholic acid for the two unresolved groups (dihydroxycholanoic acid conjugates with glycine and taurine, respectively). A third aliquot was used for determination of specific activities of the methyl esters of cholic, chenodeoxycholic, and deoxycholic acids derived from the total bile salts. Appropriate calculations yielded the concentration in bile of all six major bile acid conjugates. 相似文献

In view of the low solubility of calcium deoxycholate and the possible induction of cholesterol precipitation in the gallbladder by calcium insoluble salts, we find it of interest to study the precipitation of calcium deoxycholate and its dependence on other bile components. The findings of these studies were as follows: (i) Precipitation of calcium deoxycholate from mixtures of calcium chloride and monomeric deoxycholate (at concentrations below the critical micelle concentration (CMC] is very slow even at relatively high CaCl2 concentrations (more than 20 days at 50 mM CaCl2). (ii) At higher deoxycholic acid (DOC) concentrations, precipitation of micellar DOC is faster and requires much lower calcium chloride concentrations. For any given calcium concentration, the rate of precipitation is maximal at an optimal DOC concentration. In solutions containing 150 mM NaCl, the maximal rate of precipitation occurs at about 10 mM DOC, almost independent of Ca2+ concentration. At lower ionic strength (10 mM NaCl), the optimal DOC concentration is 30 mM. These observations suggest that the most important factors in determining the rate of Ca(DOC)2 precipitation are (a) the ratio between calcium ions bound to the surface of a DOC micelle, and the [DOC] (the Ca2+/DOC binding ratio) and (b) the concentration of DOC micelles. (iii) In the presence of conjugated deoxycholates, the crystallization of calcium deoxycholate is inhibited. Phosphatidylcholine has a similar, although smaller, inhibitory effect. Upon precipitation of calcium deoxycholate from a mixed micellar system containing sodium deoxycholate, phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol, the latter two components spontaneously form vesicles. The anti-nucleating effect of PC and conjugated bile salts is explained in terms of "poisoning" of the crystallization process. In view of the latter results we conclude that under normal conditions calcium deoxycholate is not likely to precipitate in the gallbladder. 相似文献

A criticial evaluation was made of the ethyl anthranilate diazo and two solvent-partition methods for the determination of conjugated and unconjugated bilirubin in human and rat bile. The ethyl anthranilate diazo reagent, which reacts only with conjugated bilirubin in serum, also diazotized a variable proportion of unconjugated bilirubin in bile and thus overestimated the concentration of monoconjugates. With the Weber-Schalm and modified Folsch solvent-partition methods applied to human or rat bile, 4--9% of added 14C-labelled unconjugated bilirubin partitioned with the conjugated bilirubin in the upper phase, and 4--9% of added 14C-labelled conjugated bilirubin partitioned into the lower phase. With dog bile, the spill-over of 14C-labelled bilirubin into the lower phase was 9--11%. Analysis of azopigments from the Weber-Schalm partition confirmed that over two-thirds of the bilirubin in the lower phase represents monoconjugates, principally the less-polar monoxylosides and monoglucosides. These solvent-partition methods thus overestimate the concentration of unconjugated bilirubin in bile. 相似文献

A radioimmunoassay for the measurement of both unconjugated and conjugaged estetrol in plasma has been developed. The antiserum obtained after 6 months of immunization with 6-oxoestetrol-6-(O-carboxy-methyl)oxim-BSA was used at a final dilution of 1:90,000 and showed almost no cross reaction with other steroids except for estriol at 1.24%. Esterol-glucosiduronate was synthesized by incubating with adrenalectomized rat liver homogenate and uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid. Then, plasma estetrol-glucosiduronate was measured in the same manner for unconjugated estetrol after hydrolysis with beta-glucuronidase. Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography (7X110 mm, benzene:methanol, 85:15) was employed for accurate assessment. The sensitivity was 10 pg and the smallest amount measurable was 40 pg/sample. The method bland was consistently negligible. The intra and inter assay precision was 11.8% and 14.2% for unconjugated estetrol and that for estetrol-glucosiduronate was 13.5% and 17.1%. 相似文献

Major conjugated bile acids of human bile have been resolved by high-pressure liquid chromatography. The elutions are carried out in two stages on Corasil II or μPorasil columns; first, an alkaline solvent system (2-propanol/ethyl acetate/water/7n ammonium hydroxide, 260:600:50:3) was used for separation into groups: tauro-dihydroxy derivatives, taurocholate, glyco-dihydroxy derivatives, and glycocholate. The fraction containing glyco-dihydroxy conjugates was separated by rechromatography in acetonitrile/acetic acid, 400:10, and the fraction containing tauro-dihydroxy conjugates could be partially resolved by rechromatography in acetonitrile/acetic acid/formic acid (97%)/water, 500:10:5:10. Three samples of prepared human bile have been similarly treated. 相似文献
