Cholestatic jaundice is one complication of nonhepatic gram-negative bacterial infection. The endotoxin of Escherichia coli has been reported to cause cholestasis by inhibiting the bile salt-independent fraction (BSIF) of bile in the perfused rat liver. Accordingly, the effects of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of E. coli and Salmonella enteritidis on the Na+, K+-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) in canalicular-enriched plasma membranes of rate liver were examined. At 20 microgram/ml, both endotoxins inhibited this enzyme by approximately 40%. Maximal inhibition (70%-80%) occurred at concentrations of greater than or equal to 120 microgram/ml. The LPS of neither organism exerted any effect on the activity of Mg++-ATPase or 5'-nucleotidase in the same preparations. Inhibition by the E. coli LPS appeared to be noncompetitive in nature, and the calculated Ki was 45 microgram/ml. Since the Na+, K+-ATPase may be responsible for the elaboration of BSIF, inhibition of this enzyme could be the underlying mechanism for the endotoxin-induced cholestasis.
