Bile acids and the gut microbiota: metabolic interactions and impacts on disease
Open accessAbstract
Despite decades of bile acid research, diverse biological roles for bile acids have been discovered recently due to developments in understanding the human microbiota. As additional bacterial enzymes are characterized, and the tools used for identifying new bile acids become increasingly more sensitive, the repertoire of bile acids metabolized and/or synthesized by bacteria continues to grow. Additionally, bile acids impact microbiome community structure and function. In this Review, we highlight how the bile acid pool is manipulated by the gut microbiota, how it is dependent on the metabolic capacity of the bacterial community and how external factors, such as antibiotics and diet, shape bile acid composition. It is increasingly important to understand how bile acid signalling networks are affected in distinct organs where the bile acid composition differs, and how these networks impact infectious, metabolic and neoplastic diseases. These advances have enabled the development of therapeutics that target imbalances in microbiota-associated bile acid profiles.

Bile acids are primarily synthesized by the liver from cholesterol, conjugated with taurine or glycine by BAAT, and released into the intestine.
“Bile acids (BAs) are an interesting candidate in this regard because they are primarily synthesized by the liver from cholesterol through a multistep process, conjugated with amino acids (taurine or glycine) by bile acid–CoA: amino acid N-acyltransferase (BAAT), and released into the intestine.”
From Bile acid synthesis impedes tumor-specific T cell responses during liver cancer (2025) · cites this paper as [7]
The passage labeled Abstract (page unavailable) says primary bile acids are synthesized by hepatocytes from cholesterol, conjugated with glycine or taurine, and released into the duodenum. It does not identify BAAT as the enzyme responsible for conjugation, so that specific attribution is unsupported by our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSome conjugated bile acids are modified by gut microbes into secondary bile acids, and a portion recirculates to the liver and then to the bloodstream or back into bile.
“Some of these conjugated BAs are modified by gut microbes to form secondary BAs, with a portion of them recirculating back to the liver and eventually entering the bloodstream or being resecreted into bile (7).”
From Bile acid synthesis impedes tumor-specific T cell responses during liver cancer (2025) · cites this paper as [7]
The Abstract (page unavailable) says that gut microbes produce secondary bile acids and that bile acids are reabsorbed and recycled through enterohepatic circulation. The Bacterial metabolism of BAs section (page unavailable) describes deconjugation as a first step. Our copy does not establish the claimed onward route into the bloodstream or explicitly say that these secondary bile acids are resecreted into bile. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredNon-reabsorbed primary bile acids are converted by the gut microbiota into secondary bile acids, deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid, via deconjugation and dehydroxylation.
“However, non-reabsorbed primary BAs are converted by the gut microbiota into secondary BAs (deoxycholic acid, DCA, and lithocholic acid, LCA) via deconjugation and dehydroxylation, endowing them with new biological activities.20,350”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
