摘要

Hyperlipidemia, a condition normally observed in cholestatic liver disease, is also a risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. The relationship between the elevation of lipoproteins in cholestatic liver diseases and atherosclerosis formation has not been elucidated. In this study, we propose that the impairment of endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR) of blood vessels in cholestatic liver diseases may lead to the development of atherosclerosis. Using bile duct ligation (BDL) in rats as a model, we examined the liver function, serum lipid profile, EDR and morphologic change of the aorta from both sham operated and BDL rats. Significant increases in liver and spleen weights, serum alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) activities and the bilirubin level were observed in BDL rats. Upon bile duct ligation, the total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were increased but the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels were reduced. Less contractility and lowered response to acetylcholine-induced relaxation were found in aorta segments. In addition, the acetylcholine-induced relaxation was blocked by both L-NAME and 15 mM KCl. Our results suggest that both nitric oxide and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor are important elements for the impairment of the EDR in BDL rats. In addition, a mild atrophy of the media of the aorta was detected in BDL rats. We conclude that the alterations of lipid profile and the mild atrophy of the media may lead to the impairment of EDR in the aorta in BDL rats, and these factors may potentiate the development of atherosclerosis.
