D. Wang et al, 2008), improves pancreatic function (Kumar et al, 2016; Vettorazzi et al, 2016) and improves non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (Ding et al, 2016). TGR5 knockout mice have mildly reduced BA pools (Maruyama et al, 2006; Vassileva et al, 2006), impaired glucose tolerance (Thomas et al, 2009) and exacerbated inflammatory responses (Péan et al, 2013).…”
