Bile acid (BA) production in mice is regulated by hepatic farnesoid X receptors and by intestinal fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-15 (in humans, FGF-19), a suppressor of BA synthesis that also reduces serum triglycerides and glucose. Cholestyramine treatment reduces FGF-19 and induces BA synthesis, whereas plasma triglycerides may increase from unclear reasons. We explored whether FGF-19 may suppress BA synthesis and plasma triglycerides in humans by modulation of FGF-19 levels through long-term cholestyramine treatment at increasing doses. In a second acute experiment, metabolic responses from 1 day of cholestyramine treatment were monitored. Long-term treatment reduced serum FGF-19 by &gt;90%; BA synthesis increased up to 17-fold, whereas serum BAs, triglycerides, glucose, and insulin were stable. After long-term treatment, serum BAs and FGF-19 displayed rebound increases above baseline levels, and BA and cholesterol syntheses normalized after 1 wk without rebound reductions. Acute cholestyramine treatment decreased FGF-19 by 95% overnight and serum BAs by 60%, while BA synthesis increased fourfold and triglycerides doubled. The results support that FGF-19 represses BA synthesis but not serum triglycerides. However, after cessation of both long-term and 1-day cholestyramine treatment, circulating FGF-19 levels were normalized within 2 days, whereas BA synthesis remained significantly induced in both situations, indicating that also other mechanisms than the FGF-19 pathway are responsible for stimulation of BA synthesis elicited by cholestyramine. Several of the responses during cholestyramine treatment persisted at least 6 days after treatment, highlighting the importance of removing such treatment well before evaluating dynamics of the enterohepatic circulation in humans.

Cholestyramine treatment of healthy humans rapidly induces transient hypertriglyceridemia when treatment is initiated
