Hemolysis of human erythrocytes provoked by bile acids
In the present pilot study we aimed to investigate their cytotoxicity to cellular membranes of red blood cells (RBC) monitoring the degree of hemolysis induced by different bile acids. The methodology of this study is based on spectrophotometric follow up of hemolysis after the addition of a small volume of RBC into a large excess of a defined isoosmotic solution (pH 7,5) containing bile acids. Sodium salts of cholic (CA), chenodeoxycholic (CDCA), deoxycholic (DCA) and lithocholic (LCA) acids were added in concentrations of 50, 250, 500 and 1000 &#61549;mol/l to isoosmotic solution containing RBC. The results showed that LCA and CDCA were the most damaging to RBC provoking hemolysis in the range of 83,6-2781,6 mg/l and 133,8-1170,4 mg/l respectively. CA induced moderate hemolysis (41,8-585,7 mg/l), and DCA showed the lowest degree of hemolysis (50,2-334,4 mg/l). The hemolytic potency of bile acid proved to be dose-related. The correlation between the hemolysis and individual bile acid concentration was high (CA 0,975, CDCA 0,988, DCA 0,970, LCA 0,984), and statistically significant (P<0,05). These results imply that the presence of bile acids can cause damage of cell membrane that might explain complex pathogenesis of several clinical disorders that appear during cholestasis.
