• Beschreibung: 3beta-Ursodeoxycholic acid is a bile acid that is synthesized in the liver and secreted into the intestine. It is used as a treatment for congestive heart failure, HIV infection, bowel disease, and autoimmune diseases. 3beta-Ursodeoxycholic acid has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of hydroxylation of cholesterol in the liver. It also exhibits an ability to increase the transport rate of cholesterol from the liver to other tissues in the body. 3beta-Ursodeoxycholic acid inhibits monoethyl ether formation by competing with ethylene oxide for binding sites on microsomal proteins. This compound also protects against primary sclerosing cholangitis and ursodiol therapy by preventing enzymatic inactivation of bile acids.
