The economy of the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids in the baboon. 2. Regulation of bile acid synthesis by enterohepatic circulation of bile acids.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1984
Isotope dilution within bile acid pools and radiochemical assessment of cholesterol oxidation to bile acids were methods used to measure short-term feedback regulation of bile acid synthesis in baboons with controlled enterohepatic circulations ...

Obeticholic acid for the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis in adult patients: clinical utility and patient selection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), previously known as primary biliary "cirrhosis", is a rare autoimmune liver disease characterized by the hallmark autoantibodies to mitochondrial antigens and immune-mediated destruction of small bile duct epithelial ...

Bile acid formation in man: metabolism of 7α-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one in bile fistula patients

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1973
7α-Hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one is thought to be an intermediate in human bile acid synthesis. This conclusion is based on in vivo experiments in animals and on in vitro studies in which homogenates of animal and human livers were used. To further establish

Evaluating hepatobiliary transport with 18F-labeled bile acids : the effect of radiolabel position and bile acid structure on radiosynthesis and in vitro and in vivo performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction. An in vivo determination of bile acid hepatobiliary transport efficiency can be of use in liver disease and preclinical drug development.

Human hepatoblastoma cells (HepG2) and rat hepatoma cells are defective in important enzyme activities in the oxidation of the C27 steroid side chain in bile acid formation

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
We have examined the ability of HepG2 human hepatoblastoma cells and 7800 C1 Morris rat hepatoma cells to convert 3 alpha, 7 alpha, 12 alpha-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid (THCA) and 3 alpha, 7 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid (DHCA) to ...

Bile acid synthesis in HepG2 cells: effect of cyclosporin

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
The hypothesis that cyclosporin specifically affects the pathway of bile acid synthesis that begins with 27-hydroxylation of cholesterol was evaluated in HepG2 cells, which synthesize chenodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid from endogenous 7 alpha ...

Biliary effects of liraglutide and sitagliptin, a 12-week randomized placebo-controlled trial in type 2 diabetes patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aims: Treatment with glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 receptor agonists or dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors might increase gallstone formation; however, the mechanisms involved are unknown. We aimed to assess the effects of these drugs on gallbladder

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.

open access: yesJournal 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.

Quantification of the 15 major human bile acids and their precursor 7α-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one in serum by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Bile acids are increasingly gaining attention since they were discovered to be activators of the transcription factor farnesoid X receptor (FXR) in addition to their well-established role in dietary lipid emulsification.

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...
