Enhanced bile formation induced by experimental dicrocoeliosis in the hamster.
Life Sci
December 1998
Department of Physiology, Pharmacology and Toxicology, University of León, Spain.
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effects of experimental dicrocoeliosis on bile formation in the hamster. Studies were carried out at 120 days after infection with an oral dose of 40 metacercariae of Dicrocoelium dendriticum. A significant elevation in bile flow (+20%) and in the biliary output of glutathione (+34%), bile acid (+59%), cholesterol (+108%), phospholipids (+99%) and alkaline phosphatase (+36%) was observed in the infected animals.

The effect of therapeutic doses of cyclosporine A (CyA) on bile flow and bile salt output was studied in the rat. Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats (250 to 380 g) were injected intraperitoneally with CyA (n = 15) or vehicle (n = 15) at the dose of 10 mg.kg-1 for 3 weeks.

To assess the importance of carbonic anhydrase (CA) for canalicular and ductular choleresis, the effect of acetazolamide on bile secretion was measured in three experimental groups of anaesthetized pigs. CA activity in liver homogenate was 46 (43-54) U g-1 wet weight, 150 mg kg-1 b.w.

In the rat, the activity of the thermal water of Capvern and of its ionic components on the modification of the flow rate and composition of hepatic bile has been investigated. Two groups of rats were selected: the first group received per os an overload of the thermal water during six weeks. At that time on empty stomach a great increase of biliary phospholipids was observed.

The aim of our investigation was to ascertain in rats the effect of DEM on biliary lipid composition during the increment in bile flow. Biochemical and morphological studies of liver tissue were conducted in parallel.
