SUMMARY

Since the last International Bile Acid Meeting in Stockholm in 2004, bile acid research has continued to flourish and therapeutic use of bile acids has attained a broader role. New insights have been gained into the mechanisms responsible for maintenance of bile acid homeostasis, and effects of bile acids on the cell signalling pathways have been further elucidated. Knowledge of the genetic basis of bile acid physiology has further increased. Therapy of chronic cholestatic liver diseases with ursodeoxycholic acid and new aspects of its chemopreventive properties continue to stimulate basic and clinical research and contribute to the understanding of underlying modes of action and to optimized treatment schedules. Chapters reflect the recent progress in bile acid metabolism and transport, nuclear receptor regulation and signaling by bile acids, as well as mechanisms of bile acid-induced cellular injury. Bile acids as therapeutic agents, particularly for the treatment of cholestatic liver diseases, are the focus of several clinically oriented contributions. This volume in the Falk Symposium series therefore contributes successfully to the bridging of basic science and clinical hepatology in the field of bile acids.Keppler, D. is the author of 'Bile Acids', published 2007 under ISBN 9781402062513 and ISBN 1402062516.
