Safety and Effectiveness of Pharmacy Compounded Chenodeoxycholic Acid Capsules for Patients With Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Inherit Metab Dis
ABSTRACT Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) is an essential drug for patients with rare metabolic disease cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX). To ensure continuation of treatment, the Amsterdam UMC hospital pharmacy developed pharmacy compounded CDCA capsules when the authorized CDCA capsules were no longer available for Dutch patients.

Serum bile acids as a prognostic biomarker in biliary atresia following Kasai portoenterostomy

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Serum bile acid levels predict outcomes in patients with biliary atresia who achieve normalized bilirubin levels after Kasai portoenterostomy. Abstract Background and Aims In biliary atresia, serum bilirubin is commonly used to predict outcomes after Kasai portoenterostomy (KP).

Does ursodeoxycholic acid change the proliferation of the colorectal mucosa? A randomized, placebo-controlled study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: In animal models ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) showed a chemoprotective effect against colon cancer. To explain this, a reduced proliferation of the colorectal mucosal proliferation was suggested.

Suitability of [11,12-3H2]chenodeoxycholic acid and [11,12-3H2]lithocholic acid for isotope dilution studies of bile acid metabolism in man

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1977
Studies were carried out to assess the stability of the label in [11,12-3H2]chenodeoxycholic acid and [11,12-3H2]lithocholic acid during enterohepatic cycling and thus define the suitability of these tracers for isotope dilution studies of bile acids in ...

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 ...

7alpha-Dehydroxylation of cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid by Clostridium leptum.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1979
The rate of 7alpha-dehydroxylation of primary bile acids was quantitatively measured radiochromatographically in anaerobically washed whole cell suspensions of Clostridium leptum.

Test of different sensitizing dyes in dye-sensitized solar cells based on Nb2O5 photoanodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
High-performance dyes routinely employed in TiO2-based dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) were tested in cells assembled using Nb2O5 nanostructure-based photoanodes. The sensitizers were chosen among both metal-complex (two Ru-based, N749 and C106, and

An in vivo evaluation of the quantitative significance of several potential pathways to cholic and chenodeoxycholic acids from cholesterol in man

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1980
The present study was designed to obtain more definitive information in man on the metabolic pathways to chenodeoxycholic acid and to cholic acid via a pathway not involving an initial 7 alpha-hydroxylation of cholesterol. Four bile fistula patients were

Physiological concentrations of bile acids down-regulate agonist induced secretion in colonic epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In patients with bile acid malabsorption, high concentrations of bile acids enter the colon and stimulate Cl− and fluid secretion, thereby causing diarrhoea. However, deoxycholic acid (DCA), the predominant colonic bile acid, is normally present at lower

Ursodeoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and 7-ketolithocholic acid are primary bile acids of the guinea pig.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
Guinea pig gallbladder bile contains chenodeoxycholic acid (62 +/- 5%), ursodeoxycholic acid (8 +/- 5%), and 7-ketolithocholic acid (30 +/- 5%). All three bile acids became labeled to the same specific activity within 30 min after [3H]cholesterol was ...
