Published: July 2021

Bile formation is a fundamental physiological process that is vital to the survival of all vertebrates. However, little was known about the mechanisms of this secretion until after World War II. Initial studies involved classic physiologic studies in animal models and humans, which progressed to include studies in isolated cells and membrane vesicles. The advent of molecular biology then led to the identification of specific transport systems that are the determinants of this secretion. Progress in this field was reviewed in the American Physiologic Society's series on "Comprehensive Physiology" in 2013. Herein, we provide an in-depth update of progress since that time.

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by insulin resistance and often worsened by obesity. Effective management involves the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) to assist with glycemic control and weight management. However, these drugs must be administered subcutaneously due to their low oral bioavailability.

Background: Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) regulates the survival, proliferation, and stemness of cells, and contributes to the development of metabolic dysfunction associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD). However, the regulatory role of intestinal YAP1 in MAFLD still remains unclear.

Methods: Terminal ileal specimens were used to compare intestinal YAP1 activation in patients with and without MAFLD.

Introduction: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a crucial gastrointestinal disease characterized by systemic inflammatory responses and persistent multiple organ failure. The role of bile acids (BAs) in diverse inflammatory diseases is increasingly recognized as crucial, but the underlying role of BA conjugation remains elusive.

Objectives: Our study aim to investigate the potential role of conjugated bile acids in SAP and reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying its regulatory effects.
