Folic acid plays a dual role in breast cancer depending on dose and context. While moderate intake may reduce risk, high ...

As robotic cholecystectomy, also known as gallbladder removal, becomes increasingly common, researchers have identified ...

Purpose: Branched-chain amino acid (BCAAs) levels have been associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), but studies of CVD risk factors have mainly been cross-sectional. We ...

Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have uncovered a surprising new role for gut bacteria: producing bile acids that can ...

Bacteria naturally present in the human intestine, known as the gut microbiota, can transform cholesterol-derived bile acids into powerful metabolites that strengthen anti-cancer immunity by ...

Bacteria naturally present in the human intestine, known as the gut microbiota, can transform cholesterol-derived bile acids into powerful metabolites that strengthen anti-cancer immunity by blocking ...

Microbiota-derived bile acids antagonize the host androgen receptor and drive anti-tumor immunity. Cell , 2025; DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2025.02.029 Cite This Page : ...

The image depicts gut microbes producing secondary bile acids to support the host’s immune defense against cancer. Microbiota-derived bile acids (shown in light green) blocked the androgen ...

A chemical manufacturing company has been fined £2.5m after highly corrosive acids were leaked into the atmosphere. Schools were closed in West Thurrock, Essex, and a gas cloud spread across ...

This study investigates the effects of nobiletin, a citrus flavonoid, on high-fat-diet-induced obesity-related muscle atrophy and its regulatory role in bile acid metabolism, aiming to determine ...

Hepatic synthesis of bile acids is the primary pathway for cholesterol catabolism. The cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase enzyme (encoded by CYP7A1) represents the rate-limiting step of the multi ...
