Methyl cholate (Standard)

Methyl cholate (Standard) is the analytical standard of Methyl cholate. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Methyl cholate is a bile acid analog and a specific inhibitor of TcdB toxin from Clostridioides difficile. Methyl cholate exerts a stronger selective inhibitory effect on TcdB than on TcdA. Methyl cholate induces conformational stabilization by binding to a unique site of TcdB, thereby blocking the binding of the toxin to host receptors and its self-processing process. Methyl cholate effectively protects human fibroblasts from TcdB-induced cytopathic effects. Methyl cholate exhibits dose-dependent anti-hepatic fibrosis activity in both cellular and zebrafish models, and significantly reduces the expression levels of α-SMA and COL-I. Methyl cholate is suitable for in-depth research in the fields of Clostridioides difficile infection and hepatic fibrosis.
