“…The oldest and best-documented function of taurine is its conjugation with bile acids in bile salt synthesis [80]. The hypolipidemic effect of taurine is partly due to the inhibition of cholesterol absorption in the intestine [81]. It also works by increasing the conversion of cholesterol to bile acid by enhancing 7-α hydroxylase, the rate-limiting enzyme of hepatic cholesterol catabolism, and conjoining with bile acids, this is indicated by enhanced mRNA expression and enzymatic activity of 7a-hydroxylase [82].…”
