Establishing reliable blood biomarkers for trimethylamine N-oxide status in rodents: effects of oral choline challenge, dietary choline and fasting conditions
Abstract Circulating concentrations of the gut microbial-mammalian metabolite trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is linked to atherosclerosis risk. TMAO biosynthesis begins when dietary choline is converted to trimethylamine (TMA) by gut microbial TMA lyase. TMA is transported to the liver, where flavin-containing monooxygenases convert it to TMAO.

Dietary phenolics and their microbial metabolites are poor inhibitors of trimethylamine oxidation to trimethylamine N-oxide by hepatic flavin monooxygenase 3
Abstract High circulating levels of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) are a risk factor for development of cardiovascular disease. TMAO is formed through a microbiome-host pathway utilizing primarily dietary choline as a substrate. Specific gut microbiota transform choline into trimethylamine (TMA), and, when absorbed, host hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) oxidizes TMA into TMAO. Chlorogenic acid and its metabolites reduce microbial TMA production in vitro.
