The correlation between the secretion of biliary phospholipid (PL) and bile acid suggests a regulatory effect of bile acid on PL secretion. Bile acids may influence PL synthesis and/or the mobilization of a preformed PL pool. The objective of this study was to determine the contribution of these two sources to biliary PL, by using an experimental protocol in which dehydrocholic acid (DHCA) and cholic acid (CA) were infused to manipulate biliary PL secretion. In control rats, there was a steady state in bile flow. PL secretion and the biliary secretion of newly synthesized phosphatidylcholine (PC). The specific radioactivity of PC in bile was significantly higher than in plasma, microsomes and canalicular membranes. DHCA infusion decreased biliary PC secretion rate by 80%, and secretion returned to normal values at the transport maximum of CA. The specific radioactivity of biliary PC was decreased by 30% by DHCA infusion and reached normal values during CA infusion. There were no significant changes in the specific radioactivity of PC in plasma or cellular organelles during infusion of bile acids. These data indicate that: (1) newly synthesized PC contributes a small percentage to biliary PC; thus a preformed pool (microsomal and extrahepatic) is a major source of biliary PL; (2) the contribution of the extrahepatic pool to the biliary PL may be more important than the microsomal pool.
