ABSTRACT Purified bile salt hydrolase from bile-adapted Xanthomonas maltophilia displays Michaelis-Menten kinetics on cholylglycine and cholyltaurine and hydrolyzes bile salts also in crude bovine bile. The protein is a dimer and is resistant to proteinases and to heating at 55 to 60°C for up to 60 min, in agreement with calorimetric data.

In an autoperfused dog ileum preparation, artificial pressure, venous outflow pressure, blood flow, and arteriovenous oxygen difference were measured while bile and bile salt solutions, at physiological concentrations, were placed in the lumen. Intraluminal placement of endogenous bile, synthetic bile, or bile salt solutions increased ileal blood flow (99 +/- 10, 94 +/- 20, and 104 +/- 17%, respectively) and oxygen uptake (30 +/- 5, 36 +/- 9, and 28 +/- 5%, respectively). Endogenous bile pretreated with cholestyramine, a bile salt-sequestering resin, did not alter ileal blood flow, yet increased ileal oxygen uptake by 11 +/- 3%, a response similar to that observed while Tyrode's solution (the vehicle) was in the lumen. Intra-arterial infusion of bile salts increased ileal blood flow in a dose-dependent manner, while not significantly altering ileal oxygen uptake. The results of the present study indicate that bile salts play an important role in the functional (postprandial) hyperemia in the ileum by 1) directly dilating the ileal vasculature and 2) enhancing ileal metabolism during their active absorption.

Virtually every antibiotic may cause in vivo alterations in the number, level, and composition of the indigenous microbiotae. The degree to which the microbiotae are disturbed depends on many factors. Although bile may augment antibiotic activity, studies on the effect of bile on the antibiotic susceptibility of indigenous and exogenous probiotic microorganisms are lacking. It was against this background that the antibiotic susceptibility of 37 bile salt–tolerant Lactobacillus and 11 Bifidobacterium isolates from human and other sources was determined in the presence of 0.5% wt/wt oxgall (conjugated bile salts). Oxgall did not affect the intrinsic resistance of lactobacilli to metronidazole (5 μg), vancomycin (30 μg), and cotrimoxazole (25 μg), whereas it resulted in a complete loss of resistance to polymyxin B (300 μg) and the aminoglycosides gentamicin (10 μg), kanamycin (30 μg), and streptomycin (10 μg) for most strains studied (P < 0.001). Oxgall did not affect the intrinsic resistance of bifidobacteria to metronidazole and vancomycin, whereas polymyxin B and co-trimoxazole resistance was diminished (P < 0.05) and aminoglycoside resistance was lost (P < 0.001). Seven lactobacilli, but no bifidobacteria strain, showed unaltered intrinsic antibiotic resistance profiles in the presence of oxgall. Oxgall affected the extrinsic susceptibility of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria to penicillin G (10 μg), ampicillin (10 μg), tetracycline (30 μg), chloramphenicol (30 μg), erythromycin (15 μg), and rifampicin (5 μg) in a source- and strain-dependent manner. Human strain–drug combinations of lactobacilli (P < 0.05) and bifidobacteria (P < 0.01) were more likely to show no change or decreased susceptibility compared with other strain-drug combinations. The antimicrobial activity spectra of polymyxin B and the aminoglycosides should not be considered limited to gram-negative bacteria but extended to include gram-positive genera of the indigenous and transiting microbiotae in the presence of conjugated bile salts. Those lactobacilli (7 of 37) that show unaltered intrinsic and diminished extrinsic antibiotic susceptibility in the presence of oxgall may possess greater upper gastrointestinal tract transit tolerance in the presence of antibiotics.

Cholesterol-lowering strains were obtained by high throughput screening technology and ortho-phthalaldehyde method. We used oxford cup method to screen again to obtain strains of high yield bile salt hydrolase and illuminate action mechanism ofLactobacillusreducing cholesterol. Screened six strains had the ability of high yield bile salt hydrolase and good ferment ability. The results of identifying bacteria species: strain KTxKL1J1 wereLactobacillus casei, strain Tx wasStreptococcus thermophilus, strain KS4P1 wereLactococcus lactis subsp.lactis, where the last two bacteria were strain of high yield bile salt hydrolase to be few known in literature. This work showed that dissociation bile salts and cholesterol conjuncted sediments by bile salt hydrolase decomposing conjugated bile salts.

The reactivity of 4-nitrophenyl acetate has been examined in solutions of mono-, di-, and tri-hydroxy- cholanates and their taurine and glycine conjugates. The effect of cholate solutions on the stability of acetylsalicylic acid, phenyl salicylate and benzaldehyde diethyl acetal has also been determined. At the bile salt concentrations and in the pH range of the duodenum, bile salts do not significantly influence the stability of these compounds.

Sphingomyelin in mixed dispersion with bile salts was hydrolysed by the solubilized sphingomyelinase of rat brain lysosomes. In parallel studies, physical properties of these dispersions were determined. The kinetic curves that described the rate of hydrolysis as a function of increasing concentrations of bile salt were multiphasic. A region of very low activity was followed by an ascending portion, a peak, a descending portion, a trough and a second ascending portion. The positions of the initiation points, peaks and troughs were found to be a function of the respective ratios of the bile salt to sphingomyelin for the detergent sodium taurodeoxycholate, but of the absolute concentration of the detergent for sodium taurocholate. Turbidity studies suggested that hydrolysis of sphingomyelin begins at a bile salt concentration that solubilizes the lipid and incorporates it into a mixed micelle with the detergent. Ultracentrifugation studies suggested that the sizes of the mixed aggregates of detergent and lipid were a function of the ratio of taurodeoxycholate to sphingomyelin, but of the absolute concentration of the bile salt, for sodium taurocholate.
