3β-Ursodeoxycholic Acid Analysis Service

3β-Ursodeoxycholic acid (3β-UDCA), also known as isoursodeoxycholic acid, is a bile acid known for its good tolerance and effective intestinal absorption when taken orally. In the intestines and liver, 3β-UDCA can undergo enzymatic isomerization to form ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), a more common bile acid. This structural variation gives 3β-UDCA distinct biological functions and metabolic pathways compared to UDCA. Research indicates that 3β-UDCA plays important roles in liver protection, bile acid metabolism regulation, and cholesterol metabolism. Its metabolic levels may also be linked to the development of certain liver and biliary diseases. Therefore, accurately quantifying 3β-UDCA and analyzing its metabolic changes is crucial for understanding its role in both health and disease.
