DIMETHYL SULFOXIDE INHIBITS BILE ACID SYNTHESIS IN HEALTHY MICE BUT DOES NOT PROTECT MICE FROM BILE-ACID-INDUCED LIVER DAMAGE

Dimethyl Sulfoxide Inhibits Bile Acid Synthesis in Healthy Mice but Does Not Protect Mice from Bile-Acid-Induced Liver Damage

Bile acids serve a vital function in lipid digestion and absorption; however, their accumulation can precipitate liver damage.In our study, we probed the effects of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) on bile acid synthesis and click here the ensuing liver damage in mice induced by bile acids.Our findings indicate that DMSO efficaciously curbs bile acid synt
