Abstract

The use of 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin has made it possible to prepare stable aqueous solutions of cholesterol, 26-hydroxycholesterol, 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol, and monohydroxy bile acids such as lithocholic and 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acids. These solutions are suitable for cell culture studies and for parenteral administration to animals.

Highlights

  • Summary The use of 2-hydroxypropyl-byclodextrin has made it possible to prepare stable aqueous solutions of cholesterol,26-hydroxycholesterol,7a-hydroxycholestero1,and monohydroxy bile acids such as lithocholic and 3fkhydroxy5-cholenoicacids.Thesesolutionsaresuitableforcell culture studies and pfoarenteardalministratiton animals.-De Caprio, J., J

  • Since the introduction of anexperimentalmodel for the rapid induction ofcholestasis by intravenous infusion of monohydroxy bile acids [1, 2], a major technical problem has beentopreparean infusion mixture that maintains these compounds in aqueous solution [3], and we ourselveshave tried numerous procedures without success

  • The tubes were centrifuged and analiquot of the clear solution was taken for analysis by GLC after formation of the methyl ester acetate for bile acids and the mono- or diacetates for sterols using methods for their preparation that were described in detail previously [4,5].Internal standards were 3a, 7adihydroxy-12-oxo-5bholanoic acid for bile acids and coprostanol forsterols
