(3α,5β,7β)- 3,7,22-Trihydroxycholan-24-oic Acid

Description:
(3α,5β,7β)-3,7,22-Trihydroxycholan-24-oic acid, commonly known as a bile acid derivative, is a steroid compound characterized by its hydroxyl groups at the 3, 7, and 22 positions on the cholane backbone. This structure contributes to its amphipathic nature, allowing it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic environments, which is crucial for its role in emulsifying fats in the digestive system. The presence of multiple hydroxyl groups enhances its solubility in water, facilitating its biological functions. This compound is involved in the metabolism of lipids and plays a significant role in the absorption of dietary fats and fat-soluble vitamins. Additionally, it may have implications in various physiological processes, including cholesterol homeostasis and signaling pathways. Its CAS number, 108266-90-6, is a unique identifier that aids in the cataloging and research of this specific chemical substance. Overall, this bile acid derivative is essential for digestive health and has potential therapeutic applications in lipid-related disorders.
