TLDR
The most recent findings on the inter-organ signaling and interplay with the gut microbiota of bile acids and their receptors in meta-inflammation are discussed, with a focus on their pathophysiologic roles in obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and their potential therapeutic applications.

From NASH to HCC: current concepts and future challenges.

TL;DR: This Review discusses NAFLD-associated HCC, including its epidemiology, key features that promote hepatocarcinogenesis and the management of HCC in patients with obesity and associated metabolic comorbidities, and the challenges and future directions of research.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms and disease consequences of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an in-depth discussion of the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms that lead to progressive liver injury, including the metabolic origins of NAS, the effect of NAFLD on hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism, bile acid toxicity, macrophage dysfunction, and hepatic stellate cell activation, and consider the role of genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors that promote fibrosis progression and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in NASH.

Sex Differences in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: State of the Art and Identification of Research Gaps.

TL;DR: Clinical trials should be designed to test drug efficacy and safety according to sex, age, reproductive stage (i.e., menopause), and synthetic hormone use, to fill current gaps and implement precision medicine for patients with NAFLD.

Gut microbiota and human NAFLD: disentangling microbial signatures from metabolic disorders

TL;DR: Discrepant microbiome signatures across studies could be linked to the heterogeneity of geographical regions, ethnicity, population characteristics, microbiome sequencing tools, NAFLD diagnostic tools, disease spectrum, drug consumption and circadian rhythm.

Bile salt biotransformations by human intestinal bacteria.

TL;DR: The potential exists for altering the bile acid pool by targeting key enzymes in the 7α/β-dehydroxylation pathway through the development of pharmaceuticals or sequestering bile acids biologically in probiotic bacteria, which may result in their effective removal from the host after excretion.

Bile acids induce energy expenditure by promoting intracellular thyroid hormone activation

TL;DR: It is shown that the administration of BAs to mice increases energy expenditure in brown adipose tissue, preventing obesity and resistance to insulin, and indicates that BAs might be able to function beyond the control of BA homeostasis as general metabolic integrators.

A Regulatory Cascade of the Nuclear Receptors FXR, SHP-1, and LRH-1 Represses Bile Acid Biosynthesis

TL;DR: A potent, nonsteroidal FXR ligand is used to show that FXR induces expression of small heterodimer partner 1 (SHP-1), an atypical member of the nuclear receptor family that lacks a DNA-binding domain that provides a molecular basis for the coordinate suppression of CYP7A1 and other genes involved in bile acid biosynthesis.

Fibroblast growth factor 15 functions as an enterohepatic signal to regulate bile acid homeostasis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that fibroblast growth factor 15 signals from intestine to liver to repress the gene encoding cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1), which catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the classical bile acid synthetic pathway.

Q1. What are the contributions mentioned in the paper "Bile acid control of metabolism and inflammation in obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia and nafld short title: bile acids in meta-inflammatory disorders" ?

Chávez-Talavera et al. this paper showed that BA concentrations in entero-hepatic tissues regulate metabolism in an inter-organ dialogue between the intestine, its microbiota, and the liver. 

Further studies in this exciting field will determine whether pharmacological modulation of the novel BA metabolism targets ( TGR5, FXR, ASBT, FGF19, CYP8B1 ) will convey beneficial clinical effects in humans.
