Bile acid metabolites enhance expression of cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide in airway epithelium through activation of the TGR5-ERK1/2 pathway
Abstract Signals for the maintenance of epithelial homeostasis are provided in part by commensal bacteria metabolites, that promote tissue homeostasis in the gut and remote organs as microbiota metabolites enter the bloodstream. In our study, we investigated the effects of bile acid metabolites, 3-o...
