Abstract

Numerous studies have shown that the effectiveness of antacids is not only due to acid neutralisation but also to other properties, of which adsorption of bile acids is an important component. The toxicity of bile acids is a function of their polarity, the less polar, the more toxic the acid, and this effect is more significant at low pH. They appear to damage mucosal membranes by dissolving out phospholipids and cholesterol, thereby rendering the membranes „leaky“, ultimately killing the cells and leading to mucosal erosion. In vivo and in vitro studies clearly demonstrate the property of antacids, particularly those containing aluminium, to adsorb bile acids, especially the less polar, more toxic compounds.

Zusammenfassung

Gallensäuren werden bei der Typ C-Gastritis auch als pathogenetischer Faktor diskutiert. Hierbei ist zwischen toxischen und weniger toxischen Gallensäuren zu unterscheiden. Die Toxizität der Gallensäuren steigt mit zunehmendem pK-Wert des jeweiligen Moleküls. Antacida adsorbieren Gallensäuren in vivo und in vitro. Die Gallensäurenadsorptionsrate von Antacida in in-vitro-Untersuchungen ist bei niedrigem pH-Wert [1] deutlich besser als im höheren pHBereich [27]. Besonders die toxischen α-Dihydroxy-Gallensäuren werden im unteren pH-Bereich vollständig adsorbiert. Verantwortlich für die hohe, pH-abhängige Gallensäurenadsorption scheint die Aluminiumkomponente des jeweiligen Antacidums zu sein. In-vivo-Untersuchungen zeigen, daß bei Probanden unter Antacidaeinnahme der intragastrische Gallensäurengehalt deutlich niedriger ist als unter Plazeboeinnahme.
