Core Tip |
There are many pathogenic factors for hepatic encephalopathy (HE). This experiment confirmed that total bile acids contribute to the development of HE in liver cirrhosis. The main mechanism is that bile acids mediate the expression of bile acid Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 in the brain and then affect microglia activation. However, this experiment only verified the role of total bile acids in HE, but there are many types of bile acids, and we still need to continue to explore in depth which bile acids play and what role they play. In short, bile acids and Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 in the brain may become effective targets for treating HE in the future. |
