The biliary elimination of glycodihydrofusidate (GDHF), a structural analogue of bile salts, was studied in bile fistula rats. GDHF was excreted in bile with a maximal excretory rate (Tm = 0.80 μmol min−1 kg−1) which is much lower than bile salts Tm. The effects of dehydrocholate and taurocholate on GDHF biliary secretion suggest a stimulatory effect of bile salts on canalicular excretion of the drug.(a) When a bolus intravenous injection of 3 μmol of GDHF was followed after 2 min by a continuous dehydrocholate perfusion (10 μmol min−1 kg−1), biliary excretion of GDHF was increased in comparison with control rats.(b) Upon attaining the biliary Tm by continuous perfusion of GDHF at a rate of 1.35 μmol min−1 kg−1, infusion with either taurocholate or dehydrocholate increased its Tm to a similar degree.These results are similar to those previously obtained with the effects of bile salt infusions on the Tm of bromosulfophthalein. They suggest therefore that hepatic transport of GDHF and bile salts occurs by routes which are distinct for canalicular transport in spite of the striking structural similarities between GDHF and bile salts.

1. After intravenous injection about 30% of the dose (20mg./kg.) of succinylsulphathiazole is excreted unchanged in the bile in 3hr. by the rat, whereas only about 1% is excreted by the rabbit. When the renal pedicles are ligated the biliary excretion of succinylsulphathiazole in the rat increases to about 80% of the dose, but in the rabbit under these conditions the biliary excretion is only 2% of the dose. 2. In the rat, the sulphonamide readily enters the liver and biliary excretion occurs against a concentration gradient from liver to bile; further, the excretory process can be saturated, and can be depressed by the simultaneous administration of phenolphthalein glucuronide or bile salts. 3. In the rabbit, these conditions have not been found; succinylsulphathiazole does not readily enter the liver from the plasma, there is no transfer of the drug from the liver cells to the bile against a concentration gradient, and no saturation or depression of the biliary excretion of succinylsulphathiazole is found. 4. It is suggested that two factors responsible, at least partly, for the low biliary excretion of succinylsulphathiazole in the rabbit are the poor entry of the sulphonamide into the liver in this species and a deficiency of the concentrative mechanism for its excretion in the bile.

The biliary excretion of bile salts, lysosomal acid phosphatase, and total proteins were studied in rats under different experimental conditions: (i) during bile salt loss through a bile fistula and (ii) after loading with exogenous sodium taurocholate. The experimental models were suitable to demonstrate that variations in the excretion of bile salts were associated with those of acid phosphatase output. During bile salt depletion, acid phosphatase output showed a decrease parallel to that of bile salts. Following a single i.v. injection of sodium taurocholate and during its i.v. infusion, a rapid increase of acid phosphatase excretion in bile was seen. The patterns of enzyme outputs observed after administration of sodium taurocholate suggested a bulk discharge in bile of lysosomal contents. The profiles of protein output were similar to those of acid phosphatase suggesting an association between the secretory mechanism of these bile constituents. In contrast to sodium taurocholate, 4-methylumbelliferone, which also increases canalicular bile flow, did not produce changes in the excretory patterns of the bile components studied. Therefore, the results suggested a bile salt related secretion of acid phosphatase in the rat, which may involve protein secretion in bile.

The influence of bile salts on hepatic transport of the organic anion dibromosulphthalein (DBSP) was investigated in rats. Bile salts influence the hepatic uptake, intracellular binding, and biliary excretion of DBSP. The overall effect depends on the administered dose of bile salts and DBSP. High doses of bile salts inhibited hepatic uptake of DBSP, whereas low doses of bile salts stimulated bile flow and simultaneously increased maximal biliary excretion of DBSP. The uncharged nonbile salt choleretic ouabain also stimulated biliary DBSP excretion. In contrast, the anionic nonbile salt choleretics, ethacrynic acid and theophylline, did not stimulate biliary excretion of DBSP. Because DBSP inhibited biliary excretion of ethacrynic acid and its metabolites, the lack of a stimulatory effect of ethacrynic acid choleresis might be explained by concomitant inhibition of biliary excretion of DBSP, masking the stimulatory effect of ethacrynic acid. Biliary transport maximum of DBSP was highly correlated with bile flow. The biliary clearance (Vmax/Km) was only moderately changed by bile salt administration, whereas the increase in the maximal biliary excretion rate was more pronounced, implying that the apparent Km for biliary excretion of DBSP was also increased by the bile salts. It is inferred that the stimulation of net biliary excretion of DBSP by bile salts may be due to a diminished transport from bile into the hepatocytes as the consequence of the decreased biliary concentration caused by the choleresis.

The hepatobiliary transport of three structurally related phthaleins was compared in the rat, and found to differ to a large extent in three experimental conditions: 1) after a 72-h fast; 2) after a 4-day phenobarbital treatment; and 3) during infusion of bile salts: sodium dehydrocholate or taurocholate. In the fasting group, bile flow and bile salt excretion (on a whole liver basis) decreased by 49 and 41%, respectively; bromsulphthalein sodium (BSP) and dibromsulphthalein sodium (DBSP) transport maximum (Tm) were reduced by 59 and 50%; however, rose bengal (RB) Tm remained normal. Phenobarbital pretreatment yielded a 44 and 29% increase in BSP and DBSP Tm, respectively, whereas RB Tm remained unchanged. Dehydrocholate infusion caused a 27 and 49% increase in BSP and DBSP Tm, whereas RB Tm increased by 12%. On the contrary, equimolar taurocholate infusion yielded a more important increase in RB Tm (56%) than in BSP and DBSP (31 and 22% respectively). It is suggested that RB does not share the same liver-to-bile excretory pathway as that of the former molecules. Our results emphasize the difficulties in predicting the biliary excretion of foreign compounds, even when their structure is closely similar.

Tabah bamboo shoot pickle is one of the fermented food which is the source of lactic acid bacteria.  Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is beneficial to health because it has the ability as a probiotic. Lactic acid bacteria that have probiotic criteria should have resistance to low pH and bile salts. This study aims to determine isolates of lactic acid bacteria isolated from tabah bamboo shoot pickle resistant to low pH and bile salts (NaDC). Lactic acid bacteria were tested to low pH by using MRS broth that have different pH (pH 2, pH 3, pH 4 and pH 6.2 as a control) incubated at 37ºC for 3 hours. isolates were survive in low pH then continued in bile salt resistance test with 0.3% bile salt concentration for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes and 24 hours. The results showed that three isolates out of 88 isolates had ability to grow in low pH and in medium supplemented by NaDC 0,3%. The isolates are AR 3057, AR 3101 and AR 6152 which can be used as candidat of  probiotic. Keywords : Tabah bamboo shoot pickle, lactic acid bacteria, probiotic, low pH, bile salt

1. Hepatic bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity was higher in female than in male rats; gonadectomy decreased enzyme activity in females and increased it in males. This sex difference in bilirubin conjugation was further used to evaluate the effect of differences in conjugation on the maximal biliary excretion of bilirubin in the non-anaesthetized rat. 2. After infusion of bilirubin, the maximal biliary excretory rate (Tm) and maximal concentration of bilirubin in bile were respectively 70% and 40% higher in female than in male rats; these values were decreased in females after ovariectomy and increased in males after orchiectomy. A linear relationship was found (r = 0.86; P < 0.001) between bilirubin Tm and hepatic bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase activity in the four groups of rats, suggesting that conjugation was the rate-limiting step for the maximal hepatic transport of bilirubin. 3. At the end of bilirubin infusion, bilirubin conjugates in serum, determined by alkaline methanolysis and high-performance liquid chromatography, ranged from 0.5 to 1.4% of total bilirubin. Therefore no significant reflux of conjugated bilirubin occurred during saturation of the hepatic transport of the pigment, once more suggesting that the secretory step was not rate-limiting. 4. The composition of bilirubin conjugates in bile was similar in the four groups of rats, despite significant differences in transferase activity. This suggests that the relative proportion of bilirubin mono- and di-conjugates in bile is affected by factors other than transferase activity alone. Relatively more monoconjugates were excreted under the bilirubin load than in basal conditions.

The phosphatidyl translocating activity of the mdr2 P-glycoprotein (Pgp) in the canalicular membrane of the mouse hepatocyte is a rate-controlling step in the biliary secretion of phospholipid. Since bile salts also regulate the secretion of biliary lipids, we investigated the influence of the type of bile salt in the circulation on mdr2 Pgp expression and activity. Male mice were fed a purified diet to which either 0.1% (w/w) cholate or 0.5% (w/w) ursodeoxycholate was added. This led to a near-complete replacement of the endogenous bile salt pool (mainly tauromuricholate) by taurocholate or tauroursodeoxycholate respectively. The phospholipid secretion capacity was then determined by infusion of increasing amounts of tauroursodeoxycholate. Cholate feeding resulted in a 55% increase in maximal phospholipid secretion compared with that in mice on the control diet. Northern blotting revealed that cholate feeding increased mdr2 Pgp mRNA levels by 42%. Feeding with ursodeoxycholate did not influence the maximum rate of phospholipid output or the mdr2 mRNA content. Female mice had a higher basal mdr2 Pgp mRNA level than male mice, and this was also correlated with a higher phospholipid secretion capacity. This could be explained by the 4-fold higher basal cholate content in the bile of female compared with male mice. Our results suggest that the type of bile salts in the circulation influences the expression of the mdr2 gene.
