Molecular Mechanisms of Ursodeoxycholic Acid Toxicity & Side Effects: Ursodeoxycholic Acid Freezes Regeneration & Induces Hibernation Mode
Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a steroid bile acid approved for primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC). UDCA is reported to have "hepato-protective properties". Yet, UDCA has "unanticipated" toxicity, pronounced by more than double number of deaths, and eligibility for liver transplantation compared to the control group in 28 mg/kg/day in primary sclerosing cholangitis, necessitating trial halt in Nor...
متن کاملUrsodeoxycholic acid
Ursodeoxycholic acid is an epimer of chenodeoxycholic acid (DB06777). It is a mammalian bile acid found first in the bear and is apparently either a precursor or a product of chenodeoxycholate. Its administration changes the composition of bile and may dissolve gallstones. It is used as a cholagogue and choleretic. [PubChem] Indication: The drug reduces cholesterol absorption and is used to dis...
متن کاملUrsodeoxycholic acid in cholestasis: linking action mechanisms to therapeutic applications.
UDCA (ursodeoxycholic acid) is the therapeutic agent most widely used for the treatment of cholestatic hepatopathies. Its use has expanded to other kinds of hepatic diseases, and even to extrahepatic ones. Such versatility is the result of its multiple mechanisms of action. UDCA stabilizes plasma membranes against cytolysis by tensioactive bile acids accumulated in cholestasis. UDCA also halts ...
متن کاملUrsodeoxycholic acid and chemoprevention of colorectal cancer.
Colorectal cancer is respectively the third and second most common cancer among men and women in France. Interest in chemoprevention for colorectal cancer has increased over the last two decades. Beside non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) may have chemopreventive action in colorectal cancer with a likely better tolerance. In high-risk populations such as patients ...
متن کاملRadioimmunoassay of ursodeoxycholic acid in serum.
A sensitivie and specific radioimmunoassay for the measurement of serum ursodeoxycholic acid has been developed. Ursodeoxycholic acid bound to bovine serum albumin was used as an antigen, and antiserum to this antigen was raised in the rabbit. [11, 12-3h2]Ursodeoxycholic acid was used as the radioactive tracer, and the radioimmunoassay was carried out by the method of Simmonds et al. (1973. Gas...
