Pharmacology of Chenodeoxycholic Acid
Studies on the absorption and metabolism of chenodeoxycholic (chenic) acid were carried out in healthy volunteers as well as gallstone patients on maintenance therapy with chenic acid for gallstone dissolution. Preliminary studies showed that chenic acid was completely absorbed in doses up to 400 mg when infused as a micellar solution into the jejunum,

Metabolism of potential precursors of chenodeoxycholic acid in cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX).
In patients with cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX), diminished cholic acid production is associated with incomplete oxidation of the cholesterol side chain and the excretion of C(25)-hydroxy bile alcohols.

Production of New Microbially Conjugated Bile Acids by Human Gut Microbiota
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 ...

Treatment of Constipation with Chenodeoxycholic Acid
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the cathartic effect of chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) could be helpful in the management of chronic constipation. Twenty cholesterol gall-stone patients with chronic constipation were randomly treated with either CDCA (750 mg/day in three divided doses at meals) or placebo for a period of 4 weeks.
