| Popis: |
A simple, rapid, precise radioimmunoassay for total unsulfate species of lithocholate (lithocholyglycine, lithocholyltaurine, and lithocholate) in serum is described. Antiserum was raised in rabbits by injection of lithocholylglycine coupled to bovine serum albumin (prepared by a carbodiimide method) and emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant; antisera capable of measuring 40–120 pmol at 1:400 dilution were obtained. The tracer was [11,12-3H]lithocholyglycine. The radioimmunoassay featured a 2-hr binding step at 42°C and a 1-hr separation step using polyethylene glycol. The antibody had the following relative specificities: lithocholyglycine and lithocholytaurine, 1; lithocholate, 1.5; chenodeoxycholyglycine, 20; and deoxycholylglycine, 55. There was no binding of various other free or conjugated sulfated and unsulfated bile acids. The mean fasting-state level in 50 healthy subjects was 0.3 µmol/l (0.14 µg/ml), but 11 of the 50 subjects had level too low to measure by this technique. |
