Application
Obeticholic Acid: A Potent and Selective Agonist of Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR)
Farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor, is a ligand-activated transcription factor involved in the control of bile acid (BA) synthesis and enterohepatic circulation, and a regulator of glucose and lipid metabolism. Obeticholic acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) is a semi-synthetic mimetic of the primary human bile acid, chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) [C0750]. There are reports that obeticholic acid is a potent and selective activator of FXR that reduces hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in animal models of fatty liver disease. (The product is for research purpose only.)
