Bile salt-stimulated human milk lipase characterisation and kinetic studies
… Chapter Three describes the purification of bile salt-stimulated human milk lipase (BSSL) from whole human milk. A detailed study of the activity of the purified protein has been conducted against both lipid and ester substrates in order to monitor the progress of the purification. A further …

Characterizing induced gene expression in Shigella flexneri following bile salt exposure
… Shigella utilizes host physiology, specifically bile salts as signals for invasion and virulence gene expression. This study aimed to build upon previous research analyzing the bile salts transcriptional profile of Shigella flexneri 2457T, in which an induction of the uncharacterized gene was …

Gut microbiota-mediated bile acid metabolism: implications for oral drug absorption
… investigates a potential mechanism, ‘microbial bile acid metabolism’, by which the intricate interplay between the host and gut bacteria may affect the pre-absorption behaviour and uptake of orally administered drugs. Bile salts have long been appreciated within the pharmaceutical field to be …

Enumeration, isolation, identification and probiotic characterisation of lactic acid bacteria from Nigerian human breast milk
… a series of experiments. Initially the acid and bile resistance of the selected isolates were studied. All eleven LAB showed good tolerance to low pH and high concentration of bile salt. The antimicrobial activity of the isolates was also assessed. Again all eleven LAB produced antibacterial …

Strain identification, viability and probiotics properties of lactobacillus Casei
… Lactobacillus strains in the presence of acid, bile salts and the or bile salt deconjugation, 3) to investigate viability of freeze dried Lactobacillus strains at various temperature during storage and their proteolytic activity, 4) to investigate the growth, viability and activity of …

Differentielle Regulation organischer Anionentransporter der Oatp-Familie bei Ethinylöstradiol-induzierter Cholestase der Ratte
… Impaired sodium-dependent uptake of bile acids has been associated with diminished expression of the basolateral Natrium/bile acid cotransporter (Ntcp), whereas sodium-independent uptake is maintained despite a down-regulation of the organic anion transporter Oatp1. Thus, expression …

Resistance to antimicrobial agents in bifidobacteria
… with inhibitory host-produced substances such as bile salts. Another aspect which should be studied is the safety of the probiotic bacterium and risks of acquisition of genes for resistance to antimicrobial agents. Although bifidobacteria exhibit resistance to a wide range of antibiotics, little …

Der kanalikuläre Gallensäurentransporter der Leber als Kandidatengen für den Gallensteinlocus Lith 1
… locus Lith 1, the gene encoding the canalicular bile salt export pump of the liver Abcb11, was characterized in detail and overexpressed in vivo by generating a BAC (bacterial artificial chromosome) transgenic mouse. In a molecular biological analysis, sequence information in unknown regions of …

Characterization of lactic acid bacteria from Nono, a Nigerian naturally fermented milk product
… properties including tolerance to acidic pH and bile salt, antimicrobial activity against indicators of food borne pathogens, and resistance to antimicrobials. The LAB were enumerated and isolated from Nono using MRS, M l7 and MRS + LCysteine agars. These media were selected to harvest a diverse …

MECHANISMS OF RAPID RESOLUTION OF DIABETES FOLLOWING ILEAL INTERPOSITION SURGERY IN THE RAT
… expression profiles and significant changes in bile salt profiles. Interestingly, rats that received IT surgery prior to the onset of diabetes could not be improved. In addition, if a small segment of ileum is removed from the intestinal tract rats can still maintain euglycemia. Because the …

Design and Synthesis of Cellulose Ether Derivatives for Oral Drug Delivery
… we further utilized olefin CM to conjugate bile salt derivatives (e.g. lithocholic acid and deoxycholic acid) to a cellulose backbone by converting bile salts into acrylate substrates. Successful CM of bile salt acrylates to cellulose olefin “handles” further demonstrated the great …

Taurocholat-Transport in isolierten proximalen Tubuluszellen der Ratte : Einfluss einer extrahepatischen Cholestase
… the non-protein bound fractions of plasma bile acids are filtered in the glomeruli. The bile acids reaching the tubular fluid are nearly completely reabsorbed by the apical sodium-dependent bile salt transporter (asbt). Hence, with normal conditions, urinary excretion of bile acids is …

Tale of Two Hosts: Vibrio parahaemolyticus Toxicity Against Human and Shrimp
Bile is an important component of the human gastrointestinal tract with an essential role in food absorption and antimicrobial activities. Enteric bacterial pathogens have developed strategies to sense bile as an environmental cue to regulate virulence genes during infection. We discovered that …

Self-assembly of helical ribbons from chiral amphiphiles
… thought to be a property unique to model bile systems, is a general phenomenon of quaternary sterol systems composed of a bile salt or nonionic detergent, a phosphatidylcholine or a (mixture of) fatty acid(s), and a steroid analog of cholesterol in water. The majority of helical ribbons …

The intestinal absorption of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids: proposed mechanisms from studies using human Caco-2 cells.
… degree of solubilisation of the fatty acids in bile salt micelles (which is affected by the concentration in bile salt, the pH and the degree of saturation of the FA). It was concluded that the LCFA solubilisation of in 10 mM sodium taurocholate solutions buffered between pH 6.8 and 7.0, allows …

THE BIOTRANSFORMATION OF BILE ACIDS BY A COMMON MEMBER OF THE BISON GUT MICROBIOME
Bacterial biotransformation of bile acids (BAs) is increasingly recognized to play an important role in the health and disease of the host. Bile acid-modifying bacteria participate in the production of a large number of secondary BAs (2 BAs) with known and yet to be discovered activities. In the …
