Specificity and significance of gallbladder motility function changes in rabbits fed with hypercholesterol diet

AIM: The main aim of our study was to investigate the function and ultrastructure of the gallbladder prior to gallstone formation in rabbits fed with hypercholesterol diet, and to explore the role the gallbladder plays in protecting biliary internal environments. METHODS: Three groups of rabbits were fed with hypercholesterol diet for 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 8 weeks respectively. In the control and experimental groups, gallbladder empty function was assessed ultrasonographically, gallbladder pressure and biliary cholesterol concentrations were measured, and the ultrastructure was observed by transelectronmicroscopy. RESULTS: In experimental group and , gallbladder ejection fraction decreased 97.56)% and (39.755.86)% respectively; control group: (72.693.96)%; P<0.05], gallbladder fasting volume and residual volume increased(P<0.05)and gallbladder pressure increased l group: (0.680.06) kPa; P<0.05]. In experimental group and , gallbladder biliary cholesterol concentrations were not significantly different L and (2.200.26) mmol/L respectively; control group: (1.960.71) mmol/L; P>0.05]. An increased number of secretory granules and mitochondria were observed in mucosal epithelial cells of the gallbladder. The microfilament was loosened and swell mitochondria were observed in smooth muscle cells of the gallbladder. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that hypercholesterol can lead to biliary stasis and increase tension of the gallbladder. Biliary stasis, increasing tension, cholesterol crystals and cholesterol stones of the gallbladder may play a role in protecting biliary internal environments.
