代谢
胆固醇侧链羟基化在胆酸合成中的作用机制和顺序在隔离灌注的兔肝中进行了研究。比较了26-羟基化和25-羟基化在兔胆酸生物合成中的重要性。当肝脏被灌注5beta-[G-(3)H]胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha-二醇、5beta-[G-(3)H]胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha-三醇和5beta-[G-(3)H]胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 26-三醇时,观察到[G-(3)H]胆酸的形成。胆汁中没有检测到[G-(3)H]鹅脱氧胆酸。这些发现表明,鹅脱氧胆酸的潜在前体在12alpha位置的羟基化是在胆固醇侧链羟基化之前或之后进行的。此外,当这些化合物在肝脏中灌注时,胆汁中没有发现其他中间体(四羟基或五羟基胆醇)。当兔肝被灌注5beta-[24-(14)C]胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-三醇时,在胆汁中检测到了胆酸前体。5beta-[24-(14)C]胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-三醇在肝脏的12alpha位置被羟基化,产生相应的5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 25-四醇。四醇进一步代谢为一组五醇(5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 22, 25-五醇;5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 23, 25-五醇;5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 24, 25-五醇和5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 25, 26-五醇)。从5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-三醇灌注得到的主要胆酸是胆酸。实验表明,在兔肝中,12alpha-羟基化可以在胆固醇侧链在C-25(5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-三醇)或C-26(5beta-胆甾烷-3alpha, 7alpha-26-三醇)羟基化之后发生。显然,兔可以通过经典的26-羟基化途径以及通过25-羟基化中间体形成胆酸。
The mechanism and sequence of side chain hydroxylation of cholesterol in bile acid synthesis was studied in the isolated perfused rabbit liver. A comparison was made between the importance of 26- and 25-hydroxylation in cholic acid biosynthesis in the rabbit. The formation of [G-(3)H]cholic acid was observed when the liver was perfused with 5beta-[G-(3)H]cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha-diol, 5beta-[G-(3)H]cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha-12alpha-triol, and 5beta-[G-(3)H]cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 26-triol. No [G-(3)H]chenodeoxycholic acid was detected in the bile. These findings indicate that potential precursors of chenodeoxycholic acid were hydroxylated at position 12alpha either subsequent to or before hydroxylation of the cholesterol side chain. In addition, no other intermediates (tetrahydroxy or pentahydroxy bile alcohols) were found in the bile when these compounds were perfused in the liver. Bile acid precursors were detected in bile when the rabbit liver was perfused with 5beta-[24-(14)C]cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-triol. The 5beta-[24-(14)C]cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-triol was hydroxylated in the liver at the 12alpha position to yield the corresponding 5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 25-tetrol. The tetrol was further metabolized to a series of pentols (5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 22, 25-pentol; 5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 23, 25-pentol; 5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 24, 25-pentol; and 5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 12alpha, 25, 26-pentol). The major bile acid obtained from the perfusion of the 5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-triol was cholic acid. The experiments indicated that in the rabbit liver 12alpha-hydroxylation can occur after hydroxylation of the cholesterol side chain at either C-25 (5 beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha, 25-triol) or C-26 (5beta-cholestane-3alpha, 7alpha-26-triol). Apparently, the rabbit can form cholic acid via the classical 26-hydroxylation pathway as well as via 25-hydroxylated intermediates.
