(5b,6a)-6-Ethyl-3,7-dioxo-cholan-24-oic Acid is an intermediate used in the synthesis of 6a-Ethyl Ursodeoxycholic Acid (E932095), which is an epimer of Obeticholic Acid (E899810). Obeticholic Acid is a derivative of the bile acid Chenodeoxycholic Acid (C291900). Obeticholic Acid is a potent activator of the farnesoid X nuclear receptor which reduces liver fat and fibrosis in animal models of fatty liver disease. |
