Regulation of hepatic heme synthesis by drugs, bile acids and nutrition : a transcriptional network regulating [delta]-aminolevulinic acid synthase 1 (ALAS1) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
ALAS1 is the rate limiting enzyme of heme synthesis. It is highly inducible in liver in cases of increased heme demand, such as drug metabolism or in inducible hepatic porphyrias.

Bile Acid Induced Diarrhoea Pathophysiological and Clinical Aspects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A common cause for referral to gastroenterologists is chronic watery diarrhoea. Approximately 40% of these patients have idiopathic bile acid malabsorption (BAM) – a condition with unknown aetiology.

Studies of bile acid secretion by isolated rat hepatocytes.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1978
Bile acid secretion was studied in isolated rat hepatocytes cultured in medium supplemented with cofactors and succinate. Succinate as a respiratory substrate was found to be essential for bile acid synthesis.

Regulation of classic and alternative bile acid synthesis in hypercholesterolemic rabbits: effects of cholesterol feeding and bile acid depletion

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
The effect of cholesterol feeding (3 g/day) on bile acid synthesis was examined in 10 New Zealand white rabbits (NZW), 8 Watanabe heterozygous and 10 homozygous rabbits with partial and complete deficiencies of LDL receptors. After 10 days of cholesterol

Mutational characterization of the bile acid receptor TGR5 in primary sclerosing cholangitis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
TGR5, the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1), has been linked to inflammatory pathways as well as bile homeostasis, and could therefore be involved in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) a chronic inflammatory bile duct disease. We aimed to

Effects of fasting on bile acid metabolism and biliary lipid composition in man

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1976
The effects of a four to six day fast on gallbladder bile lipid composition, bile acid pool size, bile acid composition, and cholic acid metabolism have been determined in normal human subjects.

Functional analysis of four bile salt hydrolase and penicillin acylase family members in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Bile salts play an important role in the digestion of lipids in vertebrates and are synthesized and conjugated to either glycine or taurine in the liver.

Effect of phospholipids and bile acids on cholesterol nucleation time and vesicular/micellar cholesterol in gallbladder bile of patients with cholesterol stones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Supersaturation and rapid nucleation of cholesterol in bile are of key importance in the pathogenesis of cholesterol gallstones. While the effects of bile acids and phospholipids on cholesterol saturation of bile have been extensively studied, their ...

Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO)-induced atherosclerosis is associated with bile acid metabolism

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2018
Background Recently, trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) plasma levels have been proved to be associated with atherosclerosis development. Among the targets aimed to ameliorating atherosclerotic lesions, inducing bile acid synthesis to eliminate excess ...
