Fecal bile acid excretion and messenger RNA expression levels of ileal transporters in high risk gallstone patients

BACKGROUND: Cholesterol gallstone disease (GS) is highly prevalent among Hispanics and American Indians. In GS, the pool of bile acids (BA) is decreased, suggesting that BA absorption is impaired. In Caucasian GS patients, mRNA levels for ileal BA transporters are decreased. We aimed to determine fe...
