β-Muricholic acid is a naturally occurring trihydroxy hydrophilic bile acid, as a biliary cholesterol-desaturating agent and facilitates the dissolution of cholesterol gallstones. It found in mice and differs from human primary bile acids by featuring a hydroxyl group in the β- configuration at the 6-position[1-3].
β-muricholic acid(100 µM;48h) inhibited lipid accumulation in primary-cultured mouse hepatocytes after exposure to palmitic acid (PA)/oleic acid (OA), it may be useful in the treatment of nonalcohol fatty liver disease (NAFLD) [4].
β-muricholic acid(0.5% β-muricholic acid in food; p.o; 8 weeks) is more effective than UDCA in enhancing the dissolution rates of cholesterol gallstones via increasing a liquid crystals-containing phase. Addition of beta-muricholic acid decreased gallstone prevalence to 20% through significantly reducing biliary secretion rate, saturation index, and intestinal absorption of cholesterol that prevented the transition of cholesterol from its liquid crystalline phase to solid crystals and stones [5].
