Taurine is a natural suppressor of urea cycle via targeting ASL [PDF]
Cell Death DiscoveryHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has become the leading cause of global cancer-related mortality, which raises the demand for optimized therapeutic routes. The semi-essential micronutrient taurine has been gradually identified as a pivotal player linked to

High-dose taurine supplementation exacerbates alcohol-associated liver disease by inducing gut microbiota dysbiosis and bile acid dysregulation in mice [PDF]
eGastroenterologyBackground β-aminoethanesulfonic acid (taurine) is a conditionally essential amino acid that plays critical roles in bile acid (BA) conjugation, antioxidative defence and metabolic regulation. Previous studies showed that faecal taurine level was reduced

Taurine and Astrocytes: A Homeostatic and Neuroprotective Relationship
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022 Taurine is considered the most abundant free amino acid in the brain. Even though there are endogenous mechanisms for taurine production in neural cells, an exogenous supply of taurine is required to meet physiological needs.

Taurine: A Maternally Derived Nutrient Linking Mother and Offspring
Metabolites, 2022 Mammals can obtain taurine from food and synthesize it from sulfur-containing amino acids. Mammalian fetuses and infants have little ability to synthesize taurine. Therefore, they are dependent on taurine given from mothers either via the placenta or via
