:(3α,5α,12α)-3,12-Dihydroxycholan-24-oic acid
Description:
(3α,5α,12α)-3,12-Dihydroxycholan-24-oic acid, commonly known as chenodeoxycholic acid, is a bile acid that plays a crucial role in the digestion and absorption of dietary fats. It is characterized by its steroid structure, which includes a hydroxyl group at the 3α and 12α positions, contributing to its amphipathic nature. This amphipathicity allows it to interact with both lipids and water, facilitating the emulsification of fats in the intestinal tract. The compound is typically found in the bile of mammals and is involved in the regulation of cholesterol metabolism. Chenodeoxycholic acid has therapeutic applications, particularly in the treatment of certain types of gallstones and as a cholesterol-lowering agent. It is also studied for its potential effects on liver function and metabolism. The substance is generally recognized as safe when used appropriately, but like all bile acids, it can have side effects, particularly at high concentrations. Its chemical formula and structure contribute to its biological activity and interactions within the body.
