Are saliva and bile sources of oxalate secretion into the human gastrointestinal tract?
Abstract Elevated urine oxalate (hyperoxaluria) is a risk factor for kidney stones. Normally eliminated by the kidneys, oxalate originates from endogenous metabolism and dietary absorption but secretion into the intestine remains an open question. We considered saliva and bile as two potential sources.
