Catalog No. T1789 Copy Product Info
Purity: 99.97%
Obeticholic Acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) is a high-affinity, semisynthetic, bile acid-derived FXR agonist with an EC50 of 99 nM and is able to upregulate IκB-α, KLF-2, and KLF-4 expression. Obeticholic Acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) also shows potential for treating hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis while increasing insulin sensitivity.

Product Introduction

Obeticholic Acid AI Summary
Obeticholic Acid exhibits significant bioactivity as an agonist of the Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) with an EC50 value of 99.0 nM, as determined by various assay platforms including FRET-based co-activator assays and cell-based bioluminescence assays. It also shows high efficacy, with relative efficacy values ranging from 96.0% to 144.0% compared to controls. In addition to FXR, Obeticholic Acid displays agonist activity at the TGR5 receptor, demonstrating an EC50 value of 918.0 nM and an efficacy of 83.0%. Pharmacokinetic studies on db/db mice reveal that at a dosage of 25 mg/kg bid, the compound exhibits increasing plasma and liver concentrations over time, suggesting effective distribution and stability in vivo. Notably, Obeticholic Acid also shows antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2, with significant inhibition in Caco-2 cells and HRCE cells. Furthermore, Obeticholic Acid is involved in modulating gene expression in human HepG2 cells, leading to the upregulation of mRNA for BSEP, SHP, and FGF19, and it exhibits partial inhibition of NF-kappaB mRNA. Its intrinsic clearance in mouse liver microsomes indicates metabolic stability, while its varied EC50 values across different assays suggest selective bioactivity profiles at FXR and TGR5..

In vitro
METHODS: SCC cells were treated with increasing concentrations of obeticholic acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) (0-100 μM), hepatocytes and HSCs were seeded at the same density and treated with obeticholic acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) (0.1, 1 and 10 μM), and finally MTT assay was performed.
RESULTS Obeticholic acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) reduced cell viability by more than 20% at a concentration of 10 μM. [4]
In vivo
METHODS: Thioacetamide (TAA)-intoxicated and bile duct ligation (BDL) rats were used as models. Two oral doses of 30 mg/kg obeticholic acid (INT-747) were administered within 24 hours to evaluate in vivo hemodynamics. The effects of short-term obeticholic acid (INT-747) treatment on intrahepatic hemodynamic dysfunction and signaling pathways in different rat models of cirrhotic portal hypertension (PHT) were investigated.
RESULTS FXR expression was decreased in both cirrhotic models. Obeticholic acid (INT-747) administration in TAA and BDL reactivated FXR downstream signaling pathways and reduced portal pressure by reducing total IHVR without causing harmful systemic hypotension. Obeticholic acid (INT-747) improved endothelial vasodilation but not hyperresponsiveness in perfused TAA and BDL cirrhotics. [1]
METHODS: Animals were fed a low-salt (control) or high-salt diet and treated with obeticholic acid (6-ECDCA, INT-747) (10, 30 mg/kg/day, oral, 6 weeks). Liver lysates were compared for c-JNK1 and 2 expression by Western blot.
RESULTS INT-747 reduced hepatic JNK-1 and JNK-2 expression; proinflammatory proteins may be upregulated by a high-salt diet, thereby interfering with normal insulin signaling. [3]
