Stero-Bile Acids and Bile Sterols

The Journal of Biochemistry, 1961
Abstract Cholesterol-4- 14 C was injected intraperitoneally into carp (Family Cyprinidae) and radioactive 5α-cyprinol, 5α- cholestane-3α,7α,12α,26,27-pentol that is the chief constituent of carp bile, was isolated from the gall bladder. This bile alcohol was characterized as the sulfate ester.

BILE ACID TRANSPORT

Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 1999
Bile acids undergo a unique enterohepatic circulation, which allows them to be efficiently reused with minimal loss. With the cloning of key bile acid transporter genes in the liver and intestine, clinicians now have a detailed understanding of how the different components in the enterohepatic circulation operate.

Bile Acid Synthesis

Annual Review of Physiology, 1983
Cholesterol is the obligatory precursor of bile acids, and the liver is the sole source and site of bile acid formation (1). In the transformation of choles­ terol to bile acids, the cyclopentanophenanthrene nucleus is first believed to undergo modifications followed by oxidation and cleavage of the choles­ terol side-chain.

Bile acid transporters

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 1995
The sodium-dependent bile acid transporters and sodium-independent organic anion transporters are integral membrane glycoproteins that function in the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids. The recent cloning and expression of different classes of bile acid transporters have provided insights into their structure and molecular mechanism.

Bile Acid Sequestrants

The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1990
The bile acid sequestrants, cholestyramine and colestipol, are the drugs of choice for the treatment of patients with hypercholesterolemia caused by increases in LDL‐cholesterol levels without concurrent hypertriglyceridemia (type IIA and type IIB hyperlipoproteinemia). Longitudinal clinical studies with these drugs have shown their ability to slow the

Bile acid biosynthesis

Biochemistry, 1992
To conclude, the last several years have seen a resurgence of interest in the biosynthesis of bile acids. This focus has come about due to the central roles that these molecules play in cholesterol and fat metabolism and due to recent advances in their chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology.
