The Sterolbiome: the biliary tract as a unique endocrine system
The epithelial surfaces are interrelated ecosystems. The gut microbes produce bile acid metabolites distinct from the original hepatic secretions. These can be thought of as an endocrine organ with far-reaching effects on host physiology. This webinar will review the biliary system and the fascinating physiology of the sterolbiome. This is the ultimate connection between microbiome and endocrinology.
