Deoxycholic acid (DCA) is a natural product and a TGR5 receptor agonist with cell permeability and oral activity. As a metabolite of intestinal flora, this compound is widely used in research on bile acid signal transduction, glucose and lipid metabolism, and anti-inflammatory mechanisms, and has shown therapeutic potential in diabetes and liver disease models.

Deoxycholic acid (Standard) is a reference standard for research and analysis in studies involving Deoxycholic acid. Deoxycholic acid (Cholanoic Acid) is a bile acid formed by bacterial action from cholate. It is usually conjugated with glycine or taurine. Deoxycholic acid acts as a detergent to solubilize fats for intestinal absorption, is reabsorbed itself, and is used as a choleretic and detergent.
