The Causal Role of Bile Acids in Cancers of the Digestive System [PDF]
Bile acids are widely distributed in the human gastrointestinal tract. A literature review indicates that bile acids may have a role in initiating cancers in every organ of the digestive system.

Investigation of bile salt hydrolase activity in human gut bacteria reveals production of conjugated secondary bile acids [PDF]
Through biochemical transformation of host-derived bile acids, gut bacteria mediate host-microbe crosstalk and function at the interface of nutrition and host metabolic regulation.

Efficacy of a Tibia Counter Rotator System for the Treatment of Internal Tibial Torsion in Children
Internal tibial torsion is more common in the Asian population than in Western populations. Generally, surgery should be considered for the treatment of severe internal tibial torsion. As an alternative approach, the usefulness of a tibia counter rotator

Bile acids as inflammatory mediators and modulators of intestinal permeability
Bile acids are critical for the digestion and absorption of lipids and fat-soluble vitamins; however, evidence continues to emerge supporting additional roles for bile acids as signaling molecules. After they are synthesized from cholesterol in the liver,

A Recent Ten-Year Perspective: Bile Acid Metabolism and Signaling
Bile acids are important physiological agents required for the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of nutrients. In addition, bile acids act as sensors of intestinal contents, which are determined by the change in the spectrum of bile ...

Bile Acid Metabolome after an Oral Lipid Tolerance Test by Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). [PDF]
Besides their role in intestinal resorption of lipids, bile acids are regarded as endocrine and metabolic signaling molecules. The detailed profile of bile acid species in peripheral blood after an oral lipid tolerance test (OLTT) is unknown.We ...

Bile Acids: Physiological Activity and Perspectives of Using in Clinical and Laboratory Diagnostics
Bile acids play a significant role in the digestion of nutrients. In addition, bile acids perform a signaling function through their blood-circulating fraction. They regulate the activity of nuclear and membrane receptors, located in many tissues.
