5β-Cholanic acid
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
5β-Cholanic acid is a hydrophobic modifier used to modify polymer carriers. 5β-Cholanic acid can improve the acid stability, cell penetration efficiency and drug sustained release ability of nanocarriers, and optimize the oral effectiveness of delivered molecules. 5β-Cholanic acid can covalently bind to Glycol chitosan (GC) to form a GC-CA conjugate, which optimizes the hydrophobic anchoring ability of nanoparticles and enables them to be stably adsorbed on the surface of PLGA nanoparticles. Such nanoparticles can resist dissociation in the gastric acid environment and maintain positive charge to enhance endocytic uptake by intestinal epithelial cells (such as Caco-2 cells). 5β-Cholanic acid can be used in the development of drug delivery systems.

5β-Cholanic acid-modified Glycol chitosan conjugate significantly improves the endocytic uptake efficiency of insulin by Caco-2 cells by enhancing the acid stability and positive charge characteristics of PLGA nanoparticles, increasing the bioavailability of oral insulin to 30.43% and achieving sustained and stable release of the drug in the gastrointestinal tract[1].

HGC nanoparticles (particle size of about 211-360 nm) efficiently load proteins such as bovine serum albumin (BSA) and recombinant Noggin, and possess good stability and sustained release ability. 80%-90% of the protein is continuously released within 48 hours, and the cumulative release rate reaches 94% within 72 hours. Additionally, the released proteins such as Noggin still maintain their biological activity, effectively regulating the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway and affecting mesenchymal cell aggregation and cartilage differentiation[2].
When HGC nanoparticles are precisely implanted into specific areas of mouse embryos through a microinjection system, they do not interfere with the bone development process or cause inflammatory reactions, showing excellent biocompatibility[2].
Moreover, compared with traditional agarose microbead carriers, HGC nanoparticles are smaller in size and have controlled release properties, making them more suitable for the detailed study of embryonic microstructures[2].
