The cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs), i.e. LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4, are a family of proinflammatory agents synthesized from the arachidonic acid. In target cells, these lipid mediators bind to the cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLTR), a family of seven ...

Bile Acids Activated Receptors Regulate Innate Immunity
Once known exclusively for their role in nutrients absorption, primary bile acids, chenodeoxycholic and cholic acid, and secondary bile acids, deoxycholic and lithocholic acid, are signaling molecules, generated from cholesterol breakdown by the ...

Hepatokines, bile acids and ketone bodies are novel Hormones regulating energy homeostasis
Current views show that an impaired balance partly explains the fat accumulation leading to obesity. Fetal malnutrition and early exposure to endocrine-disrupting compounds also contribute to obesity and impaired insulin secretion and/or sensitivity. The

GPBAR1 (TGR5 or M-BAR) is a G protein-coupled receptor for secondary bile acids that is highly expressed in monocytes/macrophages. In this study, we aimed to determine the role of GPBAR1 in mediating leukocyte trafficking in chemically induced models of ...

Translating gut microbiome research into therapies for type 1 diabetes
Abstract Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterised by the loss of functional pancreatic β‐cells, for which lifelong insulin therapy remains the standard of care. Given that the gut microbiome can influence host health and that shifts in gut microbial profiles have been observed in T1D, growing interest has emerged in the role of the gut microbiome in T1D,
