Gut microbiota plays a role in cholesterol metabolism by influencing bile acid production. Henriette Lamprecht Mónica Quinzo - Recent research has identified a microbial process that helps maintain ...

Synthesized in the liver, bile acids play diverse roles in digestion and metabolism. However, when their processes are disrupted, disease can occur. Scientists seek advanced technologies to better ...

Bacteria naturally present in the human intestine (known as the gut microbiota) can transform cholesterol-derived bile acids into powerful metabolites that strengthen anti-cancer immunity by blocking ...

Habegger is a professor in the UAB Department of Medicine Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism and also a scientist in the UAB Nutrition Obesity Research Center who studies how glucagon ...

The human gut is home to trillions of bacteria that play vital roles in digestion, immunity, and overall health. Disruption of the interaction between the gut microbiome and the host can contribute to ...

Bacteria naturally present in the human intestine, known as the gut microbiota, can transform cholesterol-derived bile acids into powerful metabolites that strengthen anti-cancer immunity by blocking ...

Could lithocholic acid, a compound produced when gut bacteria process bile, be the missing link between a low-calorie diet and its age-defying effects? Experiments in mice, flies and nematode worms ...

Bile acids are essential molecules the liver produces that play a critical role in digestion. They help us absorb fat-soluble vitamins and cholesterol from our food. However, bile acids can become a ...

This article highlights the ZenoTOF 8600 system's ability to detect, measure, and structurally describe bile acid levels in human plasma. Bile acid analysis in human samples has grown increasingly ...
