The bile acid in gallbladder bile of rabbits fed a normal diet or one containing 2% (w/w) cholesterol have been determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The predominant bile acids in normally fed rabbits were 3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oic acid (cholic acid), 3 alpha, 12 alpha-dihydroxy-5 alpha-cholan-24-oic acid (allodeoxycholic acid) and 3 alpha, 12 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oic acid (deoxycholic acid) with very much smaller amounts of 3 alpha-hydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oic acid (lithocholic acid) and 3 alpha, 12 beta-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oic acid. In the cholesterol-fed animals the lithocholate became a predominant bile acid. Sulphated bile acids accounted for less than 1% of the total bile acids. It is proposed that lithocholic acid may be a primary bile acid in the cholesterol-fed rabbit, formed by an alternative pathway of biosynthesis involving hepatic mitochondria.
采用气相色谱 - 质谱联用技术测定了正常饮食或含2%(w/w)胆固醇饮食的家兔胆囊胆汁中的胆汁酸。正常饮食家兔中主要的胆汁酸为3α,7α,12α - 三羟基 - 5β - 胆烷 - 24 - 酸(胆酸)、3α,12α - 二羟基 - 5α - 胆烷 - 24 - 酸(别脱氧胆酸)和3α,12α - 二羟基 - 5β - 胆烷 - 24 - 酸(脱氧胆酸),而3α - 羟基 - 5β - 胆烷 - 24 - 酸(石胆酸)和3α,12β - 二羟基 - 5β - 胆烷 - 24 - 酸的含量极少。在喂食胆固醇的动物中,石胆酸盐成为主要的胆汁酸。硫酸化胆汁酸占总胆汁酸的比例不到1%。有人提出,石胆酸可能是喂食胆固醇的家兔中的一种初级胆汁酸,它通过涉及肝线粒体的另一条生物合成途径形成。
