title: Effect of taurolithocholate-3-sulphate on biliary excretion of sulphobromophthalein and dibromosulphophthalein in the Eisai hyperbilirubinaemic rat.
abstract: We previously reported that biliary lithocholate-3-sulphate excretion was inhibited by dibromosulphophthalein, not by sulphobromophthalein in Eisai hyperbilirubinaemic rats (EHBR); instead its excretion was inhibited by both organic anions in control rats. In the present study, the effect of taurolithocholate-3-sulphate on the excretion of sulphobromophthalein and dibromosulphophthalein was studied in EHBR and control Sprague-Dawley rats. Taurolithocholate-3-sulfate infusion inhibited biliary excretion of sulphobromophthalein and dibromosulphophthalein in both EHBR and control rats. These findings indicate that in control rats biliary excretion of taurolithocholate-3-sulphate is mediated by a carrier common for both organic anions, and that in EHBR, in which the canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter is impaired, the excretory pathway for taurolithocholate-3-sulphate is also partly identical to that for both organic anions.
