Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis: diversity of presentation and refining treatment with chenodeoxycholic acid. [PDF]

open access: hybridCerebellum Ataxias, 2021
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare but treatable neurometabolic disorder of lipid storage and bile acid synthesis. Whilst CTX is said to present with the classic triad of juvenile onset cataracts, tendon xanthomata and progressive ataxia, the

Investigation of the mechanism of chenodeoxycholic acid in treating acute lung injury through network pharmacology and experimental validation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Network pharmacology and molecular simulation techniques were employed to predict the potential targets and signaling pathways of chenodeoxycholic acid in the treatment of acute lung injury. Subsequently, its therapeutic effects on acute lung injury were

Metabolism of 7 beta-alkyl chenodeoxycholic acid analogs and their effect on cholesterol metabolism in hamsters.

open access: hybridJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
The metabolism of 7-ethyl- and 7-propyl-chenodeoxycholic acids was studied in hamsters. Both bile acid analogs were absorbed efficiently by the intestine and secreted into the bile at rates similar to those of chenodeoxycholic acid.

Identification of (24E)-3 alpha,7 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholest-24-enoic acid and (24R,25S)-3 alpha,7 alpha,24-trihydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid as intermediates in the conversion of 3 alpha,7 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid to chenodeoxycholic acid in rat liver homogenates.

open access: hybridJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
Studies of chemical structure of the intermediates in the biosynthetic sequence between 3 alpha,7 alpha-dihydroxy-5 beta-cholestanoic acid (DHCA) and chenodeoxycholic acid have been undertaken. Radiolabeled DHCA was incubated with a rat liver preparation.

Microwave synthesis of novel chenodeoxycholic acid esters and comparative study of chromatographic behavior and lipophilicity

open access: yesMacedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 2023
In this study, eco-friendly microwave-assisted esterification reactions of chenodeoxycholic acid with medium-chain diols (1,2-ethanediol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, 1,8-octanediol, and 1,10-decanediol) or tetraethylene glycol were accomplished. The

Bile Acid Receptor Therapeutics Effects on Chronic Liver Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In the past ten years, our understanding of the importance of bile acids has expanded from fat absorption and glucose/lipid/energy homeostasis into potential therapeutic targets for amelioration of chronic cholestatic liver diseases.

Formation of ursodeoxycholic acid from chenodeoxycholic acid in the human colon: studies of the role of 7-ketolithocholic acid as an intermediate.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
The formation of ursodeoxycholic acid from chenodeoxycholic acid and the role of 7-ketolithocholic acid as an intermediate in this biotransformation were studied in vitro in fecal incubations as well as in vivo in the human colon.

Production of New Microbially Conjugated Bile Acids by Human Gut Microbiota

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Gut microbes have been recognized to convert human bile acids by deconjugation, dehydroxylation, dehydrogenation, and epimerization of the cholesterol core, but the ability to re-conjugate them with amino acids as an additional conversion has been ...

Effects of ursodeoxycholic acid on synthesis of cholesterol and bile acids in healthy subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Background/Aims: Ursodeoxycholic acid ( UDCA) decreases biliary secretion of cholesterol and is therefore used for the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones.
