���� T cell antigen receptor recognition of CD1a presenting self lipid ligands.
Bile acid (BA) homeostasis is regulated by the extensive cross-talk between liver and intestine. Many bile-acid-activated signaling pathways have become attractive therapeutic targets for the treatment of metabolic disorders. In this study we investigated the regulatory mechanisms of BA in the intestine. We showed that the BA levels in the gallbladder and faeces were significantly increased, whereas serum BA levels decreased in systemic Krüppel-like factor 9 (Klf9) deficiency (Klf9-/-) mice. These phenotypes were also observed in the intestine-specific Klf9-deleted (Klf9vil-/-) mice. In contrast, BA levels in the gallbladder and faeces were reduced, whereas BA levels in the serum were increased in intestinal Klf9 transgenic (Klf9Rosa26+/+) mice. By using a combination of biochemical, molecular and functional assays, we revealed that Klf9 promoted the expression of apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (Asbt) in the terminal ileum to enhance BA absorption in the intestine. Reabsorbed BA affected liver BA synthetic enzymes by regulating Fgf15 expression. This study has identified a previously neglected transcriptional pathway that regulates BA homeostasis.

Data provenance
Sequences are retrieved via the Uniprot method of the RSCB REST API. Sequences are then compared to those derived from the PDB file and matched against sequences retrieved from the IPD-IMGT/HLA database for human sequences, or the IPD-MHC database for other species. Mouse sequences are matched against FASTA files from Uniprot. Sequences for the mature extracellular protein (signal petide and cytoplasmic tail removed) are compared to identical length sequences from the datasources mentioned before using either exact matching or Levenshtein distance based matching.
