PG - 255-70 AB - Concerning the well-known choleretic effect of ferulic acid, we made further investigations on biliary excretion, metabolism and bile flow after application of ferulic acid and related compounds. In anesthesized bile duct cannulated male Wistar-rats, we studied the biliary excretion of the following 14-C labelled cinnamic acid compounds: caffeic acid (CA), ferulic acid (FA), m-coumaric acid (mCA), p-coumaric acid (pCA), isoferulic acid (IFA), p-methoxycinnamic acid (pMCA), 3,4-dimethoxycinnamic acid (DMCA), and 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamic acid (TMCA). These compounds were given intraduodenally (128-384 mumoles/kg b. wt.). All of the tested compounds were excreted to some extent in bile, giving a bile to the serum conc. ratio greater than 1. The radioactivity excreted by bile within 2 hours (as percent of the given dose) was about 20% in the case of FA, IFA, DMCA, and TMCA, about 8% for pMCA, and less than 5% for CA, mCA and pCA. The biliary excretion increased in a dose-dependent manner only after FA and IFA, but not after application of the other compounds.
