The Role of Insulin Resistance in Fueling NAFLD Pathogenesis: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Implications

TL;DR: This review detailed the clinical and pathogenetic evidence involved in the NAFLD–IR relationship, presenting both the classic and more innovative models and discussed the emerging capability of the gut microbiota to interfere with physiological signaling of the hormonal pathways responsible for maintaining metabolic homeostasis and by inducing an abnormal activation of the immune system.

Farnesoid X Receptor Agonist Treatment Alters Bile Acid Metabolism but Exacerbates Liver Damage in a Piglet Model of Short-Bowel Syndrome.

TL;DR: It is postulate that extensive small resection impacts the ability of the remnant intestine to respond to FXR activation, and Administration of OCA in SBS reduced fat malabsorption and altered bile acid composition, but did not prevent the development of SBS-ALDs.

Relationship Between Three Commonly Used Non-invasive Fibrosis Biomarkers and Improvement in Fibrosis Stage in Patients With NASH.

TL;DR: Readily available non-invasive markers may predict improvement in liver fibrosis in patients with NASH and may serve as surrogate end points in NASH clinical trials.

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus: A Clinician's Perspective

TL;DR: This concise review summarizes recent progress in the clinical management of patients with diabetes mellitus and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and evaluates strategies to manage Diabetes mellitus in terms of their effectiveness towards this epidemic liver disease.

Lowered fasting chenodeoxycholic acid correlated with the decrease of fibroblast growth factor 19 in Chinese subjects with impaired fasting glucose

TL;DR: Results suggest that the decrease of FGF19 in subjects with I-IFG was at least partially due to their decrease of CDCA acting via FXR, and fasting serum CDCA levels in subjectswith I- IFG, CGI and T2DM were significantly lower than NGT subjects.

Glucose clamp technique: a method for quantifying insulin secretion and resistance.

TL;DR: Methods for the quantification of beta-cell sensitivity to glucose (hyperglycemic clamp technique) and of tissue sensitivity to insulin (euglycemic insulin clamp technique] are described.

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.

Role of Bile Acids and Bile Acid Receptors in Metabolic Regulation

TL;DR: Results suggest that modulation of FXR activity and BA metabolism may open new attractive pharmacological approaches for the treatment of the metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.
