Abstract [en]

Background: In addition to facilitating lipid digestions, bile acids (BA) are signalling molecules acting on receptors on immune cells and along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The aim of this study was to assess if altered bile acid profiles in plasma are associated with Crohn’s disease (CD). Method: This cross-sectional study included individuals (aged ≥18 years) referred for colonoscopy at a tertiary centre in Stockholm between 2016 and 2019. All participants received bowel preparation, completed a lifestyle questionnaire and provided blood samples for analysis. During colonoscopy, severity of disease was graded, and biopsies were taken from colonic mucosa. In the current substudy, 88 individuals with CD and 88 age-matched controls were selected for analysis of BA in plasma with ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). Linear regression models were then used to compare mean bile acid concentrations and concentration ratios between CD and controls. Results: Individuals with CD had lower plasma concentrations of the majority of secondary BA compared to controls, in total CD/CC ratio 0.60 (SE 0.12), p = 0.001. The most prominent observations were lower levels of deoxycolic acid derivates and lithocolic acid derivates among participants with CD. Moreover, plasma concentration for secondary BA among participants with active CD was significantly lower compared to those with CD in remission, CD active/CD remission ratio 0.65 (SE 0.11), p < 0.002. Conclusion: Crohn’s disease may be associated with altered plasma bile acid composition. The significance of colonic bacterial diversity in this context needs to be investigated in further studies.
