In Vitro Interactions of Dietary Fibre Enriched Food Ingredients with Primary and Secondary Bile Acids. [PDF]
Dietary fibres are reported to interact with bile acids, preventing their reabsorption and promoting their excretion into the colon. We used a method based on in vitro digestion, dialysis, and kinetic analysis to investigate how dietary fibre enriched ...

Diet-induced remission in chronic enteropathy is associated with altered microbial community structure and synthesis of secondary bile acids. [PDF]
The microbiome has been implicated in the initiation and persistence of inflammatory bowel disease. Despite the fact that diet is one of the most potent modulators of microbiome composition and function and that dietary intervention is the first-line ...

Dysbiosis-Induced Secondary Bile Acid Deficiency Promotes Intestinal Inflammation. [PDF]
Secondary bile acids (SBAs) are derived from primary bile acids (PBAs) in a process reliant on biosynthetic capabilities possessed by few microbes. To evaluate the role of BAs in intestinal inflammation, we performed metabolomic, microbiome, metagenomic,

Secondary Unconjugated Bile Acids Induce Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation [PDF]
Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are key players in liver fibrosis, cellular senescence, and hepatic carcinogenesis. Bile acids (BAs) are involved in the activation of HSCs, but the detailed mechanism of this process remains unclear.

Secondary bile acids: an underrecognized cause of colon cancer [PDF]
Bile acids were first proposed as carcinogens in 1939. Since then, accumulated evidence has linked exposure of cells of the gastrointestinal tract to repeated high physiologic levels of bile acids as an important risk factor for gastrointestinal cancers.

Excess amino acids from a protein-rich diet are mainly catabolized in the liver. However, it is still unclear to what extent the gut microbiota may be involved in the mechanisms governing this catabolism.

Conjugated secondary 12α-hydroxylated bile acids promote liver fibrogenesis [PDF]
Significantly elevated serum and hepatic bile acid (BA) concentrations have been known to occur in patients with liver fibrosis. However, the roles of different BA species in liver fibrogenesis are not fully understood.We quantitatively measured blood BA concentrations in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) patients with liver fibrosis and healthy ...

Secondary bile acids inhibit Candida albicans growth and morphogenesis [PDF]
Candida albicans is one of the most common causes of fungal infections in humans with a significant mortality rate. However, the factors involved in C. albicans gastrointestinal (GI) colonization remain unclear. We hypothesize that secondary bile acids have direct antifungal activity against C.

Summary: Bile acids are metabolites of cholesterol that facilitate lipid digestion and absorption in the small bowel. Bile acids work as agonists of receptors to regulate their own metabolism.
