Re: Bile-eating critters?

Bacteroides Fragilis and Giardia

>>Anaerobes such as Bacteroides fragilis actively deconjugate bile acids, thereby preventing proper bile acid function and enterohepatic circulation.
Fatty acid absorption is reduced because deconjugated bile acids cannot form micelles.
Deconjugated bile acids directly inhibit carbohydrate transporters. These unabsorbed sugars ferment into organic acids, thereby reducing the intraluminal pH and producing osmotic diarrhea. The unconjugated bile acids also damage intestinal enterocytes and induce water secretion by the colonic mucosa.
Loss of bile acids in the stool reduces the bile acid pool.

B. Fragilis is carried by ascaris.
