Product Description

Chenodeoxycholic acid (Anthropodesoxycholic acid; Anthropodeoxycholic acid) is a naturally occurring bile acid (found in the body) acting as an apoptosis inducer via PKC-dependent signalling pathway. It works by dissolving the cholesterol that makes gallstones and inhibiting production of cholesterol in the liver and absorption in the intestines, which helps to decrease the formation of gallstones.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
With IC50 values of 22 mM and 38 mM, respectively, chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) and deoxycholic acid (DCA) both block 11 beta HSD2, induce alcohol pivoting, and raise the regulatory activity of salt stress hormone (MR) [1]. By activating the membrane G protein-coupled receptor (TGR5), chelodeoxycholicacid can significantly boost the expression of cyclin D1 protein and mRNA, which in turn promotes the development of Ishikawa cells [2]. Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) can decrease the mRNA levels of HMG-CoA reductase and HMG-CoA synthase and raise the level of LDL receptor mRNA by approximately four times in the cultured human hepatoblastoma cell line Hep G2 [3]. There were two level increases. Isc (≥67%) generated by chenodeoxycholic acid is inhibited by activation of CFTRinh-172 by bumetanide, BaCl2, and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The adenylyl cyclase mirror MDL12330A decreased chenodeoxycholic acid-stimulated Isc by 43%, but chenodeoxycholic acid raised intracellular cAMP concentration [4]. Treatment with chenodeoxycholic acid activates C/EBPβ, as evidenced by increased expression in HepG2 cells, phosphorylation, and nuclear accumulation. The 1.65-kb GSTA2 promoter with the C/EBP response element (pGL-1651) was used to control the chenodeoxycholic acid-enhanced luciferase gene. Experimental studies employing AMPKα dominant-negative mutants and chemical substitutions show that chenodeoxycholic acid therapy activates AMP-activated protein status (AMPK), which leads to activation of extracellular signaling regulator 1/2 (ERK1/2) [5].

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
