Changes in the expression patterns of genes involved in bile acid (BA) synthesis were investigated during rat liver regeneration that follows two-thirds partial hepatectomy. BAs in bile were measured by GC-MS and the absolute and relative abundance of specific mRNAs in the liver by RT-real-time quantitative PCR. Cyclin E mRNA, used as an indicator of liver cell proliferation, peaked at day 1. The levels of mRNA of alpha-fetoprotein transcription factor (FTF) and small heterodimer partner (SHP) were first reduced (day 1) and then (days 2-3) increased, when those of farnesoid X receptor (FXR) were also transiently enhanced. The early (day 1) up-regulation of Cyp7a1, and Cyp8b1, together with the down-regulation of Cyp27, was consistent with an increased proportion of cholic acid versus chenodeoxycholic acid and a progressive recovery in total BAs secretion. The transient appearance of flat BAs (allo-BAs plus Delta4-unsaturated-BAs) during rat liver regeneration was probably due to the changes in the expression ratio of steroid 5alpha- versus 5beta-reductase. Both were first (day 1) down-regulated and then up-regulated (5alpha-reductase more than 5beta-reductase). In conclusion, changes in the expression patterns of nuclear receptors and enzymes involved in BA synthesis are consistent with the transient modifications that occur in BA pool during rat liver regeneration.
