Bile acids contribute to the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in mice

This study clearly demonstrates that the alterations of enterohepatic bile acids significantly contribute to the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in relevant preclinical models. Indeed, experimental modulation of bile acid composition restored perturbed FXR and TGR5 signaling and prevented non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and associated metabolic disorders.
