Abstract The bidirectional interplay between sleep and metabolic homeostasis is fundamental to physiological health. While the roles of glucose and lipid metabolism in sleep regulation have been extensively characterized, bile acids (BAs), which are traditionally viewed as digestive surfactants, are emerging as critical metabolic messengers with ...

Dansyl-labeled cholic acid as a tool to build speciation diagrams for the aggregation of bile acids
Bile acids (BAs) are a family of natural steroids biosynthesized from cholesterol in the liver that tend to form aggregates in solution. A fluorescent derivative of cholic acid, namely 3 alpha-Dns-ChA, was employed as a reporter to establish the ...

Silicic acid thin-layer chromatography of conjugated and free bile acids
The separation of free bile acids, taurine conjugates, and glycine conjugates from one another was achieved by thin-layer chromatography, using a solvent system of isopropanol–glacial acetic acid 93:7 in a solvent system of hexane–methylethylketone ...

Advances in cholesterol and lipoproteins detection for healthcare: A review
Cholesterol is one of the main biomarkers related to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Its detection still relies on traditional methods of analysis, such as gas and liquid chromatographies. Detection of free cholesterol in saliva with redox or enzymatic sensors or detection of lipoproteins in blood with aptamer sensors are currently the most

Plasma lipids, endogenous triglyceride kinetics, and biliary lipid composition were determined in 13 patients with primary hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP) before and during treatment with cholic acid (15 mg/kg body weight/day for 3 months).

In reservoir‐associated RT033 strains, we observe a natural rewiring of spore germination that lowers the activation threshold and broadens bile‐salt specificity, enabling germination at low germinant levels and in response to typically inhibitory bile‐salts common in animal hosts.

Cholic acid is accumulated spontaneously, driven by membrane Delta pH, in many lactobacilli
Many lactobacilli from various origins were found to apparently lack cholic acid extrusion activity. Cholic acid was accumulated spontaneously, driven by the transmembrane proton gradient.

Cholesterol absorption was studied in mice receiving cholic, chenodeoxycholic, or ursodeoxycholic acids (0.2% of the diet) for 2 months. Cholesterol absorption was greater with cholic acid (79%) than with chenodeoxycholic acid feeding (60%) and the ...

Formation of urso- and ursodeoxy-cholic acids from primary bile acids by Clostridium absonum
Eight strains of Clostridium absonum were shown to form ursocholic acid (UC) from cholic acid (C) and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDC) from chenodeoxycholic acid (CDC) but did not transform deoxycholic acid (DC) in whole cell cultures. The structures of UC and
