Identification and Distribution of Sterols, Bile Acids, and Acylcarnitines by LC-MS/MS in Humans, Mice, and Pigs-A Qualitative Analysis

Ambrin Farizah Babu et al.

Summary: In this study, a sensitive and simple qualitative LC-MS/MS method was developed for the identification and distribution of sterols, bile acids, and acylcarnitines in biological samples. The method allowed the simultaneous detection and annotation of these metabolites from reference standards and different biological samples, providing a valuable tool for screening these metabolites in routine scientific research.

Functional and Phylogenetic Diversity of BSH and PVA Enzymes

Jack W. Daly et al.

Summary: BSH and PVA enzymes, both classified as choloylglycine hydrolases (CGH), have the ability to modulate the bile acid pool, influence bile acid signaling events, and impact cholesterol homeostasis. The similarities between these enzymes suggest common evolution and shared mechanisms for substrate binding, which can be compared through analysis of distribution, phylogeny, and biochemistry. The development of new annotation approaches based on functional enzyme analyses and the potential implications of BSH enzymes for host health are also discussed.

Review: microbial transformations of human bile acids

Douglas V. Guzior et al.

Summary: Bile acids play key roles in gut metabolism, cell signaling, and microbiome composition. Microbes in the gut modify primary bile acids into diverse forms, and alterations in these secondary bile acids have been linked to various diseases. Recent studies have shown that gut microbiota can conjugate amino acids to bile acids, greatly increasing the diversity of bile acids in mammalian gut.

Comprehensive Large-Scale Integrative Analysis of Omics Data To Accelerate Specialized Metabolite Discovery

Joris J. R. Louwen et al.

Summary: Microbial specialized metabolites play a crucial role in host-microbiome interactions, and there is a need for new methods to utilize the expanding genomic and metabolomic datasets while connecting them to structural and functional knowledge inferred from transcriptomics and proteomics experiments. This article describes current approaches for comprehensive mining of metabolomics and genomics data, as well as proposes a vision for automated linking of omics data of specialized metabolites to their structures, biosynthesis pathways, producers, and functions.
