Balancing act between digestion and liver health through bile acids - EurekAlert


Bile acids are crucial for liver health, but dysregulation leads to cell injury in chronic liver diseases. Therapeutic agents targeting bile acid processes show promise. Recent research reveals new links between bile acid signalling and cellular stress responses. Dysregulation of these pathways exacerbates disease pathogenesis. Understanding these links is vital for diagnosing and treating liver diseases effectively. Further research is needed to clarify the roles of these interactions in cellular function and disease progression.
