Operation Limits of Integrated Photo‐Rechargeable Batteries

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study elucidates the operational limitations of integrated photo‐rechargeable batteries. We demonstrate that the photo‐charging process is fundamentally restricted not only by material‐to‐material energy level alignment but also by transient capacitive charge accumulation within the cathode framework.

Cofactor requiremets for 7 alpha-dehydroxylation of cholic and chenodeoxycholic acid in cell extracts of the intestinal anaerobic bacterium, Eubacterium species V.P.I. 13708.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1981
The characteristics of 7 alpha-dehydroxylase, a bile acid-biotransforming enzyme, were determined using dialyzed cell extracts of Eubacterium sp. V.P.I. 12708. 7 alpha-Dehydroxylase was induced by cholic acid in this organism.

Treatment of Constipation with Chenodeoxycholic Acid

Journal of International Medical Research, 1983
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the cathartic effect of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) could be helpful in the management of chronic constipation. Twenty cholesterol gall-stone patients with chronic constipation were randomly treated with either CDCA (750 mg/day in three divided doses at meals) or placebo for a period of 4 weeks.

Single‐Molecule Characterization of Bacterial Factor‐Dependent Transcription Activation by Rob

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Factor‐dependent transcription activation is crucial and involves complex interactions between transcription factors, RNA polymerase, and promoter DNA. Using single‐molecule assays, we show that Rob prebinds RNAP to facilitate promoter search and enhances DNA unwinding and promoter escape.

Quantitative Systems Toxicology Model Predicts Obeticholic Acid‐Associated Liver Injury in Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Obeticholic acid (OCA), a synthetic analog of chenodeoxycholic acid, was approved in 2016 for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis. Early clinical trials revealed elevated liver biomarkers in healthy subjects receiving supratherapeutic OCA doses (100–250 mg).

Biological function of bile acid and its application prospect in aquaculture

Siliao yanjiu, 2023
Bile acid is an important active component of bile, which mainly includes bile acid, deoxycholic acid, taurine chenodeoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid and other components.

Bile acids of marsupials. 2. Hepatic formation of vulpecholic acid (1 alpha,3 alpha,7 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oic acid) from chenodeoxycholic acid in a marsupial, Trichosurus vulpecula (Lesson).

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
Free vulpecholic acid (1 alpha,3 alpha,7 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholan-24-oic) is the major biliary component of the Australian opossum (Trichosurus vulpecula), accompanied only by a few percent of its taurine conjugate.

Chenodeoxycholic acid normalizes elevated lipoprotein secretion and catabolism in cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare inherited lipid storage disease caused by a defect in bile acid synthesis in which cholesterol and its product cholestanol are deposited in neurological and vascular tissue.

Bile acid metabolism and signaling in human and animal health: A One Health perspective

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Bile acids maintain host homeostasis through enterohepatic circulation, microbial transformation, and bile acid receptor signaling, thereby regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, intestinal barrier integrity, and immunity. These effects support human disease intervention and health‐oriented animal production, reducing drug dependence and residue ...
