The loop diuretic bumetanide which inhibits hepatic bile acid uptake competitively according to its transport kinetics has been proposed to serve as a substrate of a multispecific bile acid transport system in liver parenchymal cells. However, when the in vitro transcripts of two cloned hepatic bile acid uptake carriers, the Ntcp (Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide) and the oatp (organic anion transporting polypeptide), was expressed for three days in Xenopus laevis oocytes [3H]bumetanide uptake was not increased although bile acid uptake was stimulated. The data presented show that bumetanide is taken up by a third organic anion transport system which is different from the cloned bile acid transporters.

Paddy rice ingestion increases intestinal mucin secretion and production by enhancing MUC2 gene expression and epithelial turnover. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of intestinal gene expression in chickens fed paddy rice and investigated whether the intestinal IgA response was modified by paddy rice ingestion. Furthermore, we investigated the possible involvement of gut fermentation.

Vascular inflammation regulates endothelial pathophenotypes, particularly in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Dysregulated lysosomal activity and cholesterol metabolism activate pathogenic inflammation, but their relevance to PAH is unclear. Nuclear receptor coactivator 7 () deficiency in endothelium produced an oxysterol and bile acid signature through lysosomal dysregulation, promoting endothelial pathophenotypes.

Sarcopenia and hepatic encephalopathy (HE) are complications of chronic liver disease (CLD), which negatively impact clinical outcomes. Hyperammonemia is considered to be the central component in the pathogenesis of HE, however ammonia's toxic effects have also been shown to impinge on extracerebral organs including the muscle. Our aim was to investigate the effect of attenuating hyperammonemia with ornithine phenylacetate (OP) on muscle mass loss and associated molecular mechanisms in rats with CLD.

Bile salts are biosurfactants released into the intestinal lumen which play an important role in the solubilisation of fats and certain drugs. Their concentrations vary along the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). This is significant for implementation in physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling to mechanistically capture drug absorption.

Inhibition of appetite is an effective approach to fight obesity. Recently, bile acids have been reported to suppress appetite and alleviate obesity via the Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5). However, whether the downstream signaling molecule cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) of TGR5 is involved in this process remains unclear.
