Biological Activity: Tryptophan-cholic acid (Trp-CA) is a microbial amino acid-conjugated bile acid that acts as an endogenous ligand and agonist (EC50=9.6 μM) for the orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) MRGPRE (Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor family member E). Tryptophan-cholic acid is orally effective but has poor oral absorption and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. Tryptophan-cholic acid promotes the secretion of glucagon-like peptide GLP-1, thereby improving glucose tolerance in diabetic mice. Tryptophan-cholic acid improves glucose tolerance, promotes insulin secretion, and alleviates high-fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis without causing pruritus side effects. Tryptophan-cholic acid is primarily used in research on type 2 diabetes (T2D)[1].
