Contributions of bile acids to gastrointestinal physiology as receptor agonists and modifiers of ion channels

Stephen J. Keely et al.

Summary: Bile acids play important regulatory roles in intestinal motility and electrolyte transport. Advances in studying their receptors, transporters, and ion channels have provided new insights into the molecular mechanisms involved in these processes. Recognizing bile acids and their modulated ion channels as potential targets could lead to new approaches for treating gastrointestinal disorders.

New Kids on the Block: Bile Salt Conjugates of Microbial Origin

Umran Ay et al.

Summary: The conversion of host bile salts by gut microbes generates secondary bile salt species with distinct biological and physicochemical properties. Recent research has identified a new class of microbial bile salt metabolites that can influence the composition of human gut bacteria and disease states. These microbial bile salt conjugates (MBSCs) are diverse, with almost 50 different species identified.

Metabolic Messengers: bile acids

Alessia Perino et al.

Summary: Bile acids are amphipathic steroid acids that play a crucial role in the regulation of metabolic responses. Their actions through activation of specific receptors control energy homeostasis and alterations in bile acid signaling are associated with metabolic diseases. Modulation of the bile acid pool could be a potential therapeutic approach.

MOLECULAR PHYSIOLOGY OF BILE ACID SIGNALING IN HEALTH, DISEASE, AND AGING

Alessia Perino et al.

Summary: Bile acids have become important signaling molecules in the body, enabling inter-tissue communication and exerting pleiotropic physiological effects. The chemical variety of bile acids, largely determined by the gut microbiome, allows for complex adaptive responses in the body. This review discusses the mechanisms by which bile acid receptors coordinate various aspects of physiology and presents new therapeutic strategies for diseases related to pathological bile acid signaling.

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.
