Phenotypic high-throughput screening identifies modulators of gut microbial choline metabolism
2024-11-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Anaerobic metabolism of dietary choline to trimethylamine (TMA) by the human gut microbiome is a disease-associated pathway. The host’s impaired ability to oxidize TMA to trimethylamine- N -oxide (TMAO) results in trimethylaminuria (TMAU), while elevated serum TMAO levels have been positively correlated with cardiometabolic disease. Small molecule inhibition of gut bacterial choline metabolism a...
