Hyocholic Acid (Standard)

Hyocholic Acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Hyocholic Acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Hyocholic Acid is a bile acid found in pig. Hyocholic Acid can also be found in urine samples from patients with cholestasis. Hyocholic Acid promotes GLP-1 secretion via activating TGR5 and inhibiting FXR in enteroendocrine cells. Hyocholic Acid is known for its exceptional resistance to type 2 diabetes [1][2][3].
