Research Abstract |
In order to elucidate the mechanism on the formation and metabolism of glutathione (GSH) conjugated bile acids via their reactive intermediates, we demonstrated that bile acid were tansacylated with GSH and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) by in vitro and in vivo studies. In addition, we clarified that the several kinds of glutathione conjugated bile acids were excreted into the bile of rats and patients with biliary diseases. We also showed the NAC conjugated ursodeoxycholic acid could be a prodrug for hepatobiliary fuction improvement drug.
