Taxonomic identification of bile salt hydrolase‐encoding lactobacilli: Modulation of the enterohepatic bile acid profile
16 Jul 2023
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Bile salt hydrolases (BSHs) are enzymes that are essential for the enterohepatic metabolism of bile acids (BAs). BSHs catalyze the production of unconjugated BAs and regulate the homeostasis of BA pool. This study identified Lactobacillus as a crucial BSH‐encoding genus, and 16 main species were obtained using metagenomic data from publicly available human gut microbiome databases. Then, the 16 species...
