β-Muricholic Acid Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Description
β-Muricholic acid (β-MCA) is a murine-specific primary bile acid. Dietary administration of β-MCA reduces HMG-CoA reductase activity in liver microsomes from mice fed a high cholesterol and cholic acid diet. Dietary administration of β-MCA also dissolves 100% of gallstones in a gallstone-susceptible mouse model of diet-induced cholesterol gallstones.
Uses
β-Muricholic Acid is an bile acid found in urine. β-Muricholic Acid has been used in studies of down regulation of transporter protein through ubiquitin dependent protein degradation.
Definition
ChEBI: Beta-muricholic acid is a member of the class of muricholic acids in which the hydroxy groups at positions 6 and 7 both have beta configuration. It is a member of muricholic acids, a 6beta-hydroxy steroid and a 7beta-hydroxy steroid. It is a conjugate acid of a beta-muricholate.
in vivo
β-Muricholic acid (Fed chow with 0.5% β-muricholic acid for 8 weeks) prevents diet-induced or experimental cholesterol gallstones in mice[2].
| Animal Model: | 6-8 weeks, Male C57L/J mice (with a lithogenic diet (2% cholesterol and 0.5% cholic acid))[2] |
| Dosage: | 0.5% β-muricholic acid |
| Administration: | Fed chow with 0.5% β-muricholic acid for 8 weeks |
| Result: | Decreased gallstone prevalence to 20% through significantly reducing biliary secretion rate, saturation index, and intestinal absorption of cholesterol, as well as inducing phase boundary shift and an enlarged Region E that prevented the transition of cholesterol from its liquid crystalline phase to solid crystals and stones. |
