... flow and bile acid output that were similar in both the control and hepatectomized rats, regardless of the time of the pre-replicative phase considered. 3. Cholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid were infused (300 nmol min −1 g −1 calculated liver weight) into control and partially hepatectomized rats...

... kinetics were determined with the aid of 14 C-labelled cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid. Cholesterol balance was calculated as the sum of bile acid synthesis plus daily faecal excretion of neutral C 27 steroids minus dietary intake of cholesterol. The results obtained were compared with previously...

The serum bile acid disappearances of tracer doses of [24- 14 C]cholic acid and [1- 14 C]-glycocholic acid were studied in eight normal subjects and 11 patients with chronic liver disease (with or without cholestasis...

... and cholic acid as well as between deoxycholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid. Patients with gall-bladder disease had an increased proportion of deoxycholic acid in their bile. 2. Eight control subjects were studied before and during the ingestion of 1·9 mmol (0·75 g) of deoxycholic acid daily...

...K. Einarsson; K. Hellström; M. Kallner 1. The turnover of [24 −14 C]cholic acid and [ 3 H]chenodeoxycholic acid and the faecal excretion of neutral steroids were studied in six normolipaemic subjects before and during the ingestion of 1.3–2.6 mmol (0.5–1.0 g) of deoxycholic acid/day. Before...

...·0 days, 663 mg and 171 mg/day respectively. The corresponding values recorded for chenodeoxycholic acid were 2·8 days, 781 mg and 207 mg/day. 3. A comparison of the turnover rates of deoxycholic acid and cholic acid in three subjects indicated that 25–61% of the cholic acid was converted...
