Viewed against the background of known or supposed biosynthetic pathways for cholic and chenodeoxycholic acids in man and laboratory animals, the chemical nature of bile salts in more primitive animals clearly indicates that evolution from C27, 5α ...

Bile salt signaling and bile salt-based therapies in cardiometabolic disease. [PDF]
Abstract Bile salts have an established role in the emulsification and intestinal absorption of dietary lipids, and their homeostasis is tightly controlled by various transporters and regulators in the enterohepatic circulation. Notably, emerging evidence points toward bile salts as major modulators of cardiometabolic disease (CMD), an ...

The acidic microenvironment in the perisinusoidal space critically determines bile salt-induced activation of hepatic stellate cells [PDF]
Cholestatic liver diseases, accompanied by the hepatic accumulation of bile salts, frequently lead to liver fibrosis, while underlying profibrogenic mechanisms remain incompletely understood.

Inhibition of hepatic bile salt uptake by Bulevirtide reduces atherosclerosis in Oatp1a1−/− Ldlr−/− mice [PDF]
Bile salts can strongly influence energy metabolism through systemic signaling, which can be enhanced by inhibiting the hepatic bile salt transporter Na+ taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), thereby delaying hepatic reuptake of bile salts to ...

Combined inhibition of bile salt synthesis and intestinal uptake reduces cholestatic liver damage and colonic bile salts in mice [PDF]
Background & Aims: Intestine-restricted inhibitors of the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT, or ileal bile acid transporter) are approved as treatment for several inheritable forms of cholestasis but are also associated with ...

Clostridium septicum manifests a bile salt germinant response mediated by Clostridioides difficile csp gene orthologs [PDF]
Clostridium septicum infections are highly predictive of certain malignancies in human patients. To initiate infections, C. septicum spores must first germinate and regain vegetative growth. Yet, what triggers the germination of C.

Systemic ASBT inactivation protects against liver damage in obstructive cholestasis in mice
Background & Aims: Non-absorbable inhibitors of the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT; also called ileal bile acid transporter [IBAT]) are recently approved or in clinical development for multiple cholestatic liver disorders and ...
