Deoxycholic acid (Cholanoic Acid) is a bile acid and a byproduct of intestinal metabolism that can activate the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor TGR5[1]. Deoxycholic acid can induce tyrosine phosphorylation and activate the receptor tyrosine kinase epidermal growth factor receptor in a ligand-independent manner[2]. Deoxycholic acid is the first drug that can be used to reduce submental fat[3].
In vitro, Deoxycholic acid (0-1000µM) treatment of AR42J cells for 24h inhibited cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner, induced cell apoptosis and necrosis, and significantly increased the activities of transcription factor 2 (ATF2), interferon-stimulated response element (ISRE), NKX-2.5, androgen receptor (AR), p53, and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), and reduced the activities of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and activator protein 1 (AP1)[4]. Treatment of colon cancer cells (SW480 and LoVo) with Deoxycholic acid (5, 50µM) for 30min significantly increased tyrosine phosphorylation of β-catenin, leading to the loss of E-cadherin binding to β-catenin in the cells[5]. Treatment of gastric cancer cell MGC803 cells with Deoxycholic acid (100µM) for 2h enhanced cell survival and proliferation activity under bile acid stress[6].
In vivo, Deoxycholic acid added to drinking water at a concentration of 0.2% for 12 weeks in Apcmin/+ mice increased the incidence of intestinal tumors, increased intestinal permeability and induced low-grade inflammation[7].

Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | AR42J cells |
Preparation Method | 2×104 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were seeded in each well of a 96-well plate. The medium was changed on the second day, and the fused cells were maintained for 24 h with medium containing different concentrations of Deoxycholic acid (0-1000µM). Then, 10μL MTT in PBSwith a concentration of 5g/L was added into each well for 4 h at 37°C. |
Reaction Conditions | 0-1000µM; 24h |
Applications | Deoxycholic acid inhibited AR42J cells proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. |
Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Apcmin/+ mice |
Preparation Method | Four-week-old female Apcmin/+ mice were obtained and randomly divided into 2 groups (n=10): a control group (receiving sterile water) and a Deoxycholic acid group (0.2% Deoxycholic acid in sterile water). After 12 weeks, the mice were sacrificed and intestinal tissues were obtained. |
Dosage form | Add 0.2% Deoxycholic acid to drinking water |
Applications | Deoxycholic acid increased the multiplicity of intestinal tumors and promoted tumorigenesis in mice. Deoxycholic acid increased intestinal permeability and induced low grade inflammation in mice. |
