Abstract/OtherAbstract:
24-Norursodeoxycholic acid (nor-UDCA), when administered into the anesthetized biliary fistula hamster or injected into the perfusate of an isolated liver, was hydroxylated at C-5 to give 5 beta-hydroxynorursodeoxycholic acid 2 (3 alpha,5,7 beta-trihydroxy-24-nor-5 beta-cholan-23-oic acid), which was secreted into bile mainly as such. Similarly, 24-norchenodeoxycholic acid (nor-CDCA) was 5 beta-hydroxylated to give 5 beta-hydroxynor-chenodeoxycholic acid 4 (3 alpha,5,7 alpha-trihydroxy-24-nor-5 beta-cholan-23-oic acid), which was also secreted into bile without appreciable further biotransformation. The site of hydroxylation was assigned by 13C and 1H NMR and mass spectrometry. 5-Hydroxylation was a major biotransformation pathway at physiological bile acid loads. 5-Hydroxylation of UDCA also occurred in the perfused rat liver but to a lesser extent. 5-Hydroxylation of nor-UDCA was not observed in rabbit, dog, or man, indicating that its formation is species-specific. 5-Hydroxylation of nor-CDCA and nor-UDCA is the first reported example of hydroxylation of a tertiary carbon atom of bile acids. Nor-dihydroxy bile acids appear to be useful for the detection of minor hydroxylation pathways, because their prolonged hepatobiliary retention exposes them repeatedly to hydroxylases present in the hepatobiliary system.
