Effect of Bile Salt Hydrolase Inhibitors on a Bile Salt Hydrolase from Lactobacillus acidophilus [PDF]
Bile salt hydrolase (BSH), a widely distributed function of the gut microbiota, has a profound impact on host lipid metabolism and energy harvest. Recent studies suggest that BSH inhibitors are promising alternatives to antibiotic growth promoters (AGP ...

Identification of Bile Salt Hydrolase and Bile Salt Resistance in a Probiotic Bacterium Lactobacillus gasseri JCM1131T [PDF]
Lactobacillus gasseri is one of the most likely probiotic candidates among many Lactobacillus species. Although bile salt resistance has been defined as an important criterion for selection of probiotic candidates since it allows probiotic bacteria to ...

Electrostatic Interactions Dictate Bile Salt Hydrolase Substrate Preference. [PDF]
Abstract The human intestines are colonized by trillions of microbes, comprising the gut microbiota, which produce diverse small molecule metabolites and modify host metabolites, such as bile acids, that regulate host physiology. Biosynthesized in the liver, bile acids are conjugated with glycine or taurine and secreted into the ...

Bile salt hydrolase in non-enterotoxigenic Bacteroides potentiates colorectal cancer [PDF]
Non-enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (NTBF) is abundant in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and in a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced CRC model. Here the authors show that bile salt hydrolase-expressing NTBF is enriched in CRC patients with overweight and

Identifying a Novel Bile Salt Hydrolase from the Keystone Gut Bacterium Christensenella minuta [PDF]
Christensenella minuta are human gut dwelling bacteria that have been proposed as key members of the gut microbiome, regulating energy balance and adiposity of their host. We formerly identified that a novel strain of C.

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.

Bile salt hydrolase catalyses formation of amine-conjugated bile acids. [PDF]
Abstract Bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract produce amino acid bile acid amidates that can affect host-mediated metabolic processes 1–6 ; however, the bacterial gene(s) responsible for their production remain unknown.

Bile Salt Hydrolase-Competent Probiotics in the Management of IBD: Unlocking the "Bile Acid Code". [PDF]
Bile acid (BA) species and the gut microbiota (GM) contribute to intestinal mucosa homeostasis. BAs shape the GM and, conversely, intestinal bacteria with bile salt hydrolase (BSH) activity modulate the BA pool composition. The mutual interaction between BAs and intestinal microorganisms also influences mucosal barrier integrity, which is important for

Taxonomic identification of bile salt hydrolase‐encoding lactobacilli: Modulation of the enterohepatic bile acid profile [PDF]
Bile salt hydrolases (BSHs) are enzymes that are essential for the enterohepatic metabolism of bile acids (BAs). BSHs catalyze the production of unconjugated BAs and regulate the homeostasis of BA pool.
