General description

Glycochenodeoxycholate (GCDC) is a toxic hydrophobic bile salt.

Application

Sodium glycochenodeoxycholate has been used as an additive in de Man, Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) agar for bile acid deconjugation to determine the capacity of the strains to deconjugate specific bile acids.
Sodium glycochenodeoxycholate has been used in a study to assess the repair of DNA damage induced by bile salts. It has also been used in a study to investigate enterotoxin production by Clostridium perfringens type A in the presence of human bile salts.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glycochenodeoxycholate (GCDC) can induce hepatocyte apoptosis that is partially mediated by Fas.

The effect of human bile juice and bile salts (sodium cholate, sodium taurocholate, sodium glycochenodeoxycholate and sodium chenodeoxycholate) on growth, sporulation and enterotoxin production by enterotoxin-positive and enterotoxin-negative strains of Clostridium perfringens was determined. Each bile salt inhibited growth to

Articles

Today, diverse studies report the benefits of probiotics, such as inhibitory effects on pathogens, aid in the management or prevention of chronic intestinal inflammatory diseases or atopic syndromes, and support to the immune system. Potential beneficial applications abound, researchers continue to evaluate the effictiveness and clarify the mechanisms of action of probiotics.

Protocols

This method is particularly useful in research into the role of individual bile acids as signaling molecules; suitable for clinical laboratories to investigate potential mechanisms linked to gut hormone profiles and glycemic control.
