Because the first-pass extraction of bile acids is constant, when more bile acids are absorbed during digestion, the concentration of bile acids in systemic plasma rises severalfold. Cholesterol and conjugated bile acid molecules that enter the small intestine during the secretion of bile have quite...
For most intracellular proteins, loss occurs through digestion by lysosomal or cytosolic proteases. Although a significant proportion of hepatic lysosomal enzymes is released from the hepatocyte by excretion into bile, the contribution of biliary excretion to the turnover of hepatic lysosomal enzymes has...

Several parasites spread themselves sufficiently widely over the surface of the villi that they reduce the surface area available for nutrient digestion and absorption. The use of scanning electron microscopy shows that G. lamblia may impair absorption by this means. In addition, the villus may be ...
The complete digestion of human milk triacylglycerol in vitro requires gastric lipase, pancreatic colipase-dependent lipase, and bile salt-stimulated lipase. Gastric lipase, pancreatic colipase-dependent lipase, and bile salt-stimulated lipase all have potential roles in digestion of human milk triacylgly...

Dietary restriction (DR) decreases body weight, improves health, and extends lifespan. DR can be achieved by controlling how much and/or when food is provided, as well as by adjusting nutritional composition. Because these factors are often combined duri
Lactic acid bacteria play important roles in various fermented foods in Asia. Besides being the main component in kimchi and other fermented foods, they are used to preserve edible food materials through fermentation of other raw-materials such as rice w
The second is through the synthesis and secretion of bile, which takes fat-soluble toxins into the digestive tract for elimination. If the diet is high in fibre the toxic load will be absorbed and excreted, but a low fibre diet may result in toxic reabsorption. ...
Neem writes in, “Low TSH, insulin, bile and cholesterol due to chronic infection, any recommendations?”, yeah. So if TSH is low, that means your hypothyroid, your- your- I mean your pituitary is going basically low, right? You- almost the hypopituitary issue, and if you're not taki...
