Researchers headed by teams at the Salk Institute and at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), have discovered, in mice, how high-fat diets (HFDs) can change gut bacteria and alter digestive ...
LA JOLLA (August 22, 2023)—The prevalence of colorectal cancer in people under the age of 50 has risen in recent decades. One suspected reason: the increasing rate of obesity and high-fat diets. Now, ...
Primary bile acids are synthesized from cholesterol in the liver, which is transformed to cholic acid (CA) through the classical pathway and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) as an alternative pathway.
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 ...
For the first time, a team of experts from the Technical University of Munich (TUM), RWTH Aachen University, and the German Institute of Human Nutrition Potsdam-Rehbruecke (DIfE) has demonstrated the ...
Researchers have discovered how high-fat diets can change gut bacteria and alter digestive molecules called bile acids that are modified by those bacteria, predisposing mice to colorectal cancer. The ...
