    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Um im Schimpansen die hepatische Biotransformation der primären Gallensäure Chenodeoxycholsäure und deren wichtigstem bakteriellen Metaboliten, Lithocholsäure zu charakterisieren, wurde ein Gemisch aus Spurenmengen von14C-Lithocholsäure und3H-Chenodeoxycholsäure intravenös in zwei Tiere mit Gallenfistel injiziert. Die chemische Form der Radioaktivität, die in der Galle erschien, wurde dünnschichtchromatographisch ermittelt. Etwa 80% der Chenodeoxycholsäure und 70% der Lithocholsäure wurden innerhalb von 90 min ausgeschieden. Die Chenodeoxycholsäure war vollständig konjugiert und erschien vorwiegend als Chenyltaurin (52%) und Chenylglycin (37%). 11% erschienen in einer Form, die bisher nicht identifiziert wurde. Lithocholsäure wurde vollständig als Taurin- und Glycinkonjugat in die Galle eliminiert; der größte Teil (63%) war zusätzlich sulfatiert. Die Sulfatierung nahm stetig mit der Zeit zu und Lithocholylglycine wurde stärker sulfatiert als Lithocholyltaurin. Wir schließen aus diesen Befunden, daß der Schimpanse mit dem Menschen vergleichbar ist, indem er Lithocholsäure effektiv sulfatiert. Dadurch unterscheidet sich der Schimpanse vom Rhesusaffe und Baboon, die die Lithocholsäure nur in geringem Maße sulfatieren. Jedoch unterscheidet sich der Schimpanse auch vom Menschen und ähnelt dem Rhesusaffen und dem Baboon, indem er Gallensäure vorwiegend mit Taurin konjugiert. Die Ergebnisse lassen den Schluß zu, daß die Hepatotoxizität, die im Rhesusaffe und Baboon durch Chenodeoxycholat hervorgerufen wird, und auf eine geringe Sulfatierung der Lithocholsäure zurückgeführt wird, beim Schimpansen nicht bestehen sollte.
    Notes: Abstract To characterize the hepatic biotransformation in the chimpanzee of the primary bile acid chenodeoxycholic acid (chenic) and its major bacterial metabolite lithocholic acid (lithocholic) a mixture of tracer amounts of14C-lithocholic and3H-chenic was injected intravenously into two animals with a bile fistula; the chemical form of radioactivity appearing in bile was inferred using thin layer chromatography. About 80% of chenic, and 70% of lithocholic was recovered in 90 min. Chenic was completely conjugated in bile, appearing predominantly as chenyltaurine (52%) and chenylglycine (37%). An unidentified conjugate (about 11%) was also found. Lithocholic was excreted completely as taurine and glycine conjugates, but the majority (63%) of conjugates was sulfated. Sulfation increased progressively with time, and lithocholylglycine was sulfated more than lithocholyltaurine. We conclude that the chimpanzee is similar to man in that the secondary bile acid lithocholic is efficiently sulfated. The chimpanzee thus differs from the baboon and rhesus monkey which sulfate lithocholic poorly. However, the chimpanzee differs from man and is similar to the baboon and rhesus monkey in showing preferential conjugation of bile acids with taurine. The results imply that hepatotoxicity caused by chenic, which is well documented in the rhesus monkey and baboon and has been related to defective lithocholic sulfation, should not occur in the chimpanzee.

    Notes: Abstract Continuous recording of blood flow to the coronary, renal and hindlimb vascular beds of sheep has been carried out using flow probes implanted around the major vessels supplying these regions. Blood flow has been recorded at rest, with the sheep running at speeds of 1–16 kmh−1 on a treadmill, and during the recovery period. A Doppler flowmeter has been developed to facilitate compatibility with existing equipment, to enable reliable reproduction of the unit and to keep costs to a minimum. To minimize interference accompanying the violent movements of exercise great care must be taken with the electrical connections and flow probes require streamlining to facilitate implantation. Blood flow to both hindlimb and coronary vascular beds increased during exercise while that to the renal vascular bed did not change. Thus continuous recording with the Doppler ultrasonic flowmeter can be utilised during all phases of exercise, unlike other methods such as the use of radioactive microspheres which provides only point estimations and has limited application for repeated measurement.
