Conjugated linoleic acid: effects on plasma lipids and cardiovascular function.

abstract：PURPOSE OF REVIEW:Bile acid sequestrants (BAS) have been used for more than 50 years in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. The last decade, bile acids are emerging as integrated regulators of metabolism via induction of various signal transduction pathways. Consequently, BAS treatment may exert unexpected side-effe...
