Abstract


Alterations of bile acid metabolism in type II diabetes (T2D) have revealed a link between bile acids and metabolic homeostasis. The bile acid receptors farnesoid X receptor (FXR) has shown to regulate lipid, glucose, and energy metabolism, rendering them potential therapeutic targets for T2D therapy. Astonishingly, bile acid signaling is vital as it has known to be a positive factor for beneficial improvements in vertical sleeve gastrectomy surgery, in turn making this bile acid receptor as a beneficial tool in therapeutic targets for T2D.  Thus, the metabolic regulator FXR is an essential modulator in the metabolic system, which affect the human physiological machinery.
