title: [Biosynthesis of cholic and chenodeoxycholic acids from [1-14C]acetyl-CoA and [2-14C]malonyl-CoA in a reconstituted system from the rat liver].
abstract: The possibility of biosynthesis of cholic (I) and chenodeoxycholic (II) acids from [1-14C]acetyl-CoA and [2-14C]malonyl-CoA in a reconstituted system of rat liver and the incorporation of acetyl-CoA into these bile acids under conditions of acetyl-CoA carboxylase activation by citrate or its inhibition by avidin were studied. The effects of Triton WR 1339 and cholesterol feeding on acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA incorporation into I and II were investigated. Teh incorporation of both substrates into the total unsaponifiable lipid fraction and fatty acids was demonstrated. The reconstituted system of rat liver was found able to synthesize and I and II not only from acetyl-CoA, but from malonyl-CoA as well. The rate of malonyl-CoA incorporation into the bile acids was somewhat higher than that of acetyl-CoA incorporation. Preincubation of the reconstituted system with citrate stimulated the rate of acetyl-CoA incorporation into I. Stimulation of biosynthesis of I occurred independently of the diurnal rhythm of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reductase) activity. An addition of avidin to the reconstituted system preincubated with citrate caused inhibition of acetyl-CoA incorporation both into fatty acids and into I. The rate of biosynthesis of II remained practically unchanged in both cases. Treatment with Triton WR 1339 had only a slight effect, while cholesterol feeding significantly stimulated the incorporation of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA into I and II. The results obtained suggest the participation of malonyl-CoA in formation of bile acids, preferentially cholic acid, and in a lesser degree, in sterol biosynthesis. Data from stimulation of bile acid biosynthesis under cholesterol feeding suggest that HMG-CoA reductase localized in the soluble fraction of rat liver is involved in bile acid biosynthesis.
