| Bioactivity | Cholic acid is a major primary bile acid produced in the liver and usually conjugated with glycine or taurine. It facilitates fat absorption and cholesterol excretion. Related Catalog Natural Products >> Acids and Aldehydes Research Areas >> Metabolic Disease Target Human Endogenous Metabolite In Vitro Cholic acid competitively binds Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) on HepG2 cells and significantly inhibits the uptake of Cholic acid (CA)-nanoliposomes (LPs)-Doxorubicin (DOX)-HCl, which indicates that CA-LPs-DOX-HCl are also uptaken via NTCP-mediated endocytosis pathway[1]. In Vivo Cholic acid feeding leads to increased CYP2D6 expression in CYP2D6-humanized mice. As a cholestasis model, Tg-CYP2D6 mice are fed a Cholic acid (CA)-supplemented diet for over 1 week. The treatment is known to increase bile acid pool size by 2-fold and to replace ~90% of bile acids with CA, recapitulating the features of cholestatic conditions in humans[2]. Cell Assay HepG2 cells are pretreated with the inhibitors NaN3 (1 mg/mL), Genistein (50 μg/mL), MβCD (10 mM), Nystatin (50 μg/mL), Chlorpromazine (10 μg/mL), and Cholic acid (1 mg/mL) for 30 min. After removing the inhibitors, the cells are incubated with CA-LPs for 2 h, and the cellular uptake of LPs is determined in the "In vitro cellular uptake assays" section[1]. Animal Admin Mice[2] Tg-CYP2D6 mice are fed with normal chow (control) or 1% (w/w) Cholic acid-supplemented diet (CA) for 14 days (n=4 mice/group). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activities are measured in mouse serum. References [1]. Li Y, et al.
