:(3β,5β,6α)-3,6-Dihydroxycholan-24-oic acid
Description:
(3β,5β,6α)-3,6-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 a steroid acid derived from cholesterol and is characterized by its hydroxyl groups at the 3 and 6 positions, which contribute to its amphipathic nature, allowing it to interact with both lipids and water. This compound is typically found in the bile of mammals and is involved in the emulsification of fats, facilitating their breakdown by digestive enzymes. Chenodeoxycholic acid has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications, including the treatment of certain types of gallstones and as a cholesterol-lowering agent. Its molecular structure includes a steroid backbone, which is essential for its biological activity. Additionally, it is important to note that this compound can undergo conjugation with amino acids, such as glycine or taurine, enhancing its solubility and effectiveness in the digestive system.
