Chenodeoxycholic acid 3-sulfate (disodium salt) A80320 (Previously 700320) 3α, 7α -dihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic acid 3-sulfate disodium salt

Chenodeoxycholic Acid 3-Sulfate (3-sulfochenodeoxycholic acid / 3-sulfodeoxycholate) is a derivative of one of the primary bile acids (BAs) - chenodeoxycholic acid. It belongs to the class of organic bile salts and also bears a hydroxyl group. Chenodeoxycholic Acid 3-Sulfate molecules are highly hydrophobic, making the compound practically insoluble in water and relatively neutral.

Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA / chenocholic acid), on the other hand, is an epimer of ursodeoxycholic acid and derives from cholesterol catabolism in liver hepatocytes as a result of a series of enzyme-regulated reactions. CDCA owns a wide range of properties in the human body, including aid in lipid metabolism, inhibiting liver cholesterol production and gallstones formation, anti-inflammatory functions, and more.

In recent years, Chenodeoxycholic Acid 3-Sulfate, alongside other CDCA derivatives, has been found to show great application prospects in the field of cellular biology and medicine, molecular recognition, and others to investigate various functions and roles of specific metabolites in the human body.

Avanti’s Chenodeoxycholic Acid 3-Sulfate is manufactured in line with strict protocols to guarantee a high standard of its quality so customers get the most if its use in their research work.
