Hyocholic acid (γ-Muricholic acid) is the major bile acid in pigs and other mammals and is also found in urine samples of patients with cholestasis[1]. Hyocholic acid promotes intracellular glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion by activating G protein-coupled bile acid receptor (TGR5) and inhibiting farnesoid X receptor (FXR), thereby improving glucose homeostasis[2]. Hyocholic acid can be used as a novel biomarker for metabolic disorders and can resist type 2 diabetes[3].
In vitro, treatment of STC-1 and NCI-H716 cells with hyocholic acid (25, 50 μM) for 24 h upregulated GLP-1 protein secretion and proglucagon gene transcription in cells [4].
In vivo, oral treatment of diabetic mice with hyocholic acid (100 mg/kg) reduced blood glucose levels, increased fasting insulin levels, and upregulated serum GLP-1 levels through TGR5 and FXR signaling in vivo [4]. Oral treatment of nonalcoholic hepatitis mice with hyocholic acid (10, 100 mg/kg) for 16 weeks alleviated hepatic steatosis induced by a high-fat, high-cholesterol (HFHC) diet, reduced the production of lipid peroxides in a dose-dependent manner, and prevented hepatocyte apoptosis[5].
