[Reactivity of the liver to administration of cholic acid to rats subjected to polychloropinene expsoure for a long time]. / Reaktivnost' pecheni na vvedenie kholevoi kisloty u krys, podvergavshikhsia dlitel'nomu vozdeistviiu polikhlorpinena.

It was found that in healthy rats cholic acid caused a moderately increased intensity of bile secretion and raised the content of bile acids in it. In animals with toxic hepatitis produced by a long-term action of the chemical poison polychlorpinene in a dose of 1/10 DL50 and following introduction to such rats of cholic acid in a dose of 30 mg/100 g an intensified elinination of cholates and cholesterol excretion were evident. Combined action of polychlorpinene and cholic acid was conductive to a reduced conjugation of cholic acid with taurine and to a greater conjugation with glycine, this being attended by an increased content of free bile acids in the bile.
