Abstract:
:Cholesterol and bile acid leves were examined in young (8 weeks), middle-aged (12 months) and old (24 months) germ-free male rats, and young (8 weeks) and middle-aged (12 months) conventional male rats. The plasma cholesterol levels were higher in the aged rats, being more marked in the conventional rats. The liver cholesterol levels also increased with age and the increases were almost identical for both groups. No age-related changes were found in the biliary bile acid secretion, the pool size and distribution of bile acids in the bile, small intestine and large intestine, nor in the turnover frequency of bile acids, but the pool size in the young and middle-aged germ-free rats was much larger than that in the conventional rats. The turnover frequency was less in the germ-free rats. The bile acid synthesis presumed from the fecal bile acid excretion decreased in the aged germ-free rats but not in the conventional rats. A most remarkable age-related change was found in the bile acid composition; cholic acid increased and beta-muricholic acid derived from chenodeoxycholic acid in the rat decreased by aging, resulting in an increase of the CA/CDCA ratio (bile acids belonging to the cholic acid group/bile acids to the chenodeoxycholic acid group) in the bile, feces and pool. These results suggest that cholic acid synthesis increases while chenodeoxycholic acid synthesis is impaired by aging in rats.
