Metabolite Identification
Common Nameisochenodeoxycholic acid
DescriptionIsochenodeoxycholic acid is a bile acid, a class of steroid acids derived from cholesterol. Its chemical structure features a steroid nucleus with hydroxyl groups and a carboxylic acid, which contribute to its amphipathic properties, allowing it to emulsify fats in the digestive system. Isochenodeoxycholic acid plays a role in various metabolic pathways, particularly in the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids, which is crucial for lipid digestion and absorption. It is involved in the regulation of cholesterol metabolism and can influence the gut microbiota composition. In enzymatic studies, values for k(cat)/K(m) were noted in the rank order of isodeoxycholic acid (isoDCA), isochenodeoxycholic acid (isoCDCA), isoUDCA, and isolithocholic acid (isoLCA) (0.10, 0.09, 0.08, and 0.) (PMID:10733557 ). This indicates its relative enzymatic activity and potential interactions with bile salt hydrolases, which are important for maintaining bile acid homeostasis and overall digestive health.
