General description

Cholic acid is a major primary bile acid produced in the liver which facilitates fat absorption and cholesterol excretion. It is a non-denaturing ionic detergent.

Application

Dietary cholic acid has been used in a study to assess its effect on colonic epithelial cell proliferation. It has also been used in a study to investigate extractions and comparisons of human erythrocyte ghosts.

Non-denaturing ionic detergent used for extraction of membrane proteins.

How to Find a Lot/Batch Number for COA

Lot and Batch Numbers can be found on a product's label following the words 'Lot' or 'Batch'.

Aldrich Products

For a lot number such as TO09019TO, enter it as 09019TO (without the first two letters 'TO').
For a lot number with a filling-code such as 05427ES-021, enter it as 05427ES (without the filling-code '-021').
For a lot number with a filling-code such as STBB0728K9, enter it as STBB0728 without the filling-code 'K9'.

Acute and chronic effect of dietary cholic acid on colonic epithelial cell proliferation.

E E Deschner et al.

Digestion, 21(6), 290-296 (1981-01-01)

Administration of cholic acid (1.0% of the diet) to male Fisher rats for 3 days resulted in increased numbers of DNA synthesizing epithelial cells per colonic crypt column as compared to those found in either control or 0.2% cholic acid-fed

Detergent extraction of erythrocyte ghosts. Comparison of residues after cholate and Triton X-100 treatments.

R Coleman et al.

Biochimica et biophysica acta, 436(1), 38-44 (1976-06-04)

1. Human erythrocyte ghosts were extracted with individual free and conjugated bile salts and, for comparison, with Triton X-100 under conditions approximating to physiological temperature, pH and tonicity. 2. Treatment with cholate, glycocholate, taurocholate, or with Triton X-100 gave lipid-depleted

Bile acid toxicity in Paneth cells contributes to gut dysbiosis induced by high-fat feeding.

Hui Zhou et al.

JCI insight, 5(20) (2020-10-16)

High-fat feeding (HFF) leads to gut dysbiosis through unclear mechanisms. We hypothesize that bile acids secreted in response to high-fat diets (HFDs) may act on intestinal Paneth cells, leading to gut dysbiosis. We found that HFF resulted in widespread taxonomic

Assembly of nuclear DNA-encoded subunits into mitochondrial complex IV, and their preferential integration into supercomplex forms in patient mitochondria.

Michael Lazarou et al.

The FEBS journal, 276(22), 6701-6713 (2009-10-22)

Complex IV is the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. In humans, biogenesis of complex IV involves the coordinated assembly of 13 subunits encoded by both mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. The early stages of complex IV assembly involving mitochondrial

Discovery of 6alpha-ethyl-23(S)-methylcholic acid (S-EMCA, INT-777) as a potent and selective agonist for the TGR5 receptor, a novel target for diabesity.

Roberto Pellicciari et al.

Journal of medicinal chemistry, 52(24), 7958-7961 (2009-12-18)

In the framework of the design and development of TGR5 agonists, we reported that the introduction of a C(23)(S)-methyl group in the side chain of bile acids such as chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) and 6-ethylchenodeoxycholic acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) affords selectivity for
