title: Effects of organic anions and bile acids on biliary lipid excretion in hyperbilirubinemic mutant Sprague-Dawley rats.
abstract: The effects of organic anions and bile acids on biliary lipid excretion were studied in EHBR, a hyperbilirubinemic mutant Sprague-Dawley rat. A marked delay in the biliary excretion of BSP, cefpiramide, rose bengal and ursodeoxycholate-disulfate was observed in these animals. The marked decrease in the biliary excretion of phospholipids and cholesterol and the uncoupling of biliary bile acids and lipids that occurred after the administration of BSP, cefpiramide and ursodeoxycholate-disulfate in control Sprague-Dawley rats was absent in EHBR. Rose bengal did not change biliary lipid excretion in either the control Sprague-Dawley rats or the EHBR. Although taurocholate markedly increased bile flow and biliary bile acid excretion in both types of rats, the increase in biliary lipid excretion observed in the control Sprague-Dawley rats was absent in EHBR. These findings indicate that EHBR have an impairment of hepatic lipid transfer that is enhanced by bile acids, possibly at the level of intracellular vesicular lipid transport.
