cholic acid sodium

Cholic acid sodium (SodiumCholate) exhibits a strong spermicidal and antiviral [anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1] activity.

Cholic acid sodium hydrate is a natural and orally active bile acid that is synthesized primarily by the liver and secreted into the bile, where it plays an important role in the digestive process, aiding in the absorption of fats by emulsifying them, as well as participating in the excretion of cholesterol and regulating the metabolism of bile acids.

Ursodeoxycholic acid sodium (Sodium Ursodeoxycholate) is a naturally occurring secondary bile acid with anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective activities. Ursodeoxycholic acid sodium acts as signaling molecule, exerting its effects by interacting with bile acid activated receptors,

Taurocholic acid sodium salt hydrate (Sodium taurocholate hydrate), formed by the conjugation of taurine with cholic acid, is the primary ingredient in the bile of carnivorous animals. It acts as a detergent to solubilize fats for absorption and is employed as a cholagogue and choleretic.

Glycocholic Acid Sodium Salt (Sodium Glycocholate) is a conjugated bile salt and ionic biologic detergent. It is involved in the emulsification of fats.

Deoxycholic acid sodium salt (Sodium deoxycholate) can activate the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor TGR5 that stimulates brown adipose tissue (BAT) thermogenic activity.

Taurochenodeoxycholic acid sodium (Sodium taurochenodeoxycholate) is one of the main bioactive substances of animals' bile acid. Taurochenodeoxycholic acid sodium induces apoptosis and shows obvious anti-inflammatory and immune regulation properties. It can increase glucose-induced insulin secretion and stimulate the electrical activity of α2-cells and enhance cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](c)).

Taurolithocholic acid sodium salt (Sodium taurolithocholate) is the major human metabolite, a bile acid which inhibits radioligand binding to muscarinic M1, but not to M2 or M3 receptors.

Glycochenodeoxycholic acid sodium salt is a bile salt formed in the liver from deoxycholic acid and glycine that induces apoptosis in hepatocytes. It acts as a detergent, dissolves fats for absorption, and is itself absorbed.

Taurohyodeoxycholic acid sodium salt (Sodium taurohyodeoxycholate hydrate) prevents apoptosis by blocking a calcium-mediated apoptotic pathway as well as caspase-12 activation.

Taurodeoxycholic acid sodium hydrate (Sodium taurodeoxycholate monohydrate), a hydrophilic bile salt, influences bile salt and biliary lipid secretion in rats.
