Inhibition of ileal sodium-dependent bile acid transport by 2164U90.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
Inhibition of the ileal bile acid active transport system, previously shown to be mechanism underlying the hypocholesterolemic activity of 2164U90 in rodents, was further characterized in isolated intestinal preparations from three species.

The role of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 in bile acid homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bile acids (BAs) are important modulators of metabolic functions such as lipid, triglyceride and glucose homeostasis. Intrahepatic accumulation of BAs is known to cause liver injury in cholestatic conditions, where normal trans-hepatic BA flow is ...

Decreased expression of breast cancer resistance protein in the duodenum in patients with obstructive cholestasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background/Aims: The expression of transporters involved in bile acid homeostasis is differentially regulated during obstructive cholestasis. Since the drug efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is known to transport bile acids, we ...

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.

Regulation of Bile Acid and Cholesterol Metabolism by PPARs

open access: yesPPAR Research, 2009
Bile acids are amphipathic molecules synthesized from cholesterol in the liver. Bile acid synthesis is a major pathway for hepatic cholesterol catabolism.

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Regulates Hepatic Bile Acid Metabolism in MiceSummary

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2017
Background & Aims: Cholestasis promotes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the liver, however, the effect of ER stress on hepatic bile acid metabolism is unknown.

Dietary N-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids decrease biliary cholesterol saturation in gallstone disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Because fatty acid composition of biliary phospholipids influences cholesterol secretion into bile, we investigated whether replacement of n-1 monounsaturated or n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in biliary ...

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 ...

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

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.
