It is known that 1) elevated serum bile acids (BAs) are associated with decreased body weight, 2) glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels can decrease and 3) germ-free (GF) mice resistant to diet-induced obesity. The purpose of this study was test the hypothesis a lack intestinal microbiota results in more BAs body, resulting increased BA-mediated transmembrane G protein–coupled receptor 5 (TGR5) signaling GLP-1 as mechanism resistance GF had 2- 4-fold total serum, liver, bile, ileum.
