Hyocholic Acid (3α,6α,7α-trihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oic acid) is a biliary acid found mainly in pig as well as in human urine at low concentrations, in particular, in urine samples from patients with cholestasis. Hyocholic Acid can promote GLP-1 secretion via activating TGR5 and inhibiting FXR in enteroendocrine cells. It is known for its exceptional resistance to type 2 diabetes . Hyocholic acid differs from the primary bile acids found in humans by having a third hydroxyl group in the α-conformation at the 6-position, unlike cholic acid, which has a 12-hydroxyl, and chenodeoxycholic acid which has neither a 6- or 12-hydroxyl. It also differs from the muricholic acids found in rodents, as they are 6β-hydroxylated, and can have the 7-hydroxyl in either the α- or β- positions, forming α- or β-muricholic acids.

ln Vitro |
In STC-1 and NCI-H716 cells, HCA (25 and 50 μM, 24 h) increases GLP-1 protein secretion[3]. In STC-1 and NCI-H716 cells, HCA (25 and 50 μM, 24 h) increases the transcription of the proglucagon gene[3].

ln Vivo |
Pigs' blood glucose rise brought on by BA depletion is suppressed by hyocholic acid (20 mg/kg, po)[3]. In diabetic mouse models, hydroxycholic acid (100 mg/kg/day, po) enhances serum fasting GLP-1 secretion and glucose homeostasis [3].
Hyocholic acid (HCA) and its derivatives are found in trace amounts in human blood but constitute approximately 76% of the bile acid (BA) pool in pigs, a species known for its exceptional resistance to type 2 diabetes. Here, we show that BA depletion in pigs suppressed secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and increased blood glucose levels. HCA administration in diabetic mouse models improved serum fasting GLP-1 secretion and glucose homeostasis to a greater extent than tauroursodeoxycholic acid. HCA upregulated GLP-1 production and secretion in enteroendocrine cells via simultaneously activating G-protein-coupled BA receptor, TGR5, and inhibiting farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a unique mechanism that is not found in other BA species. We verified the findings in TGR5 knockout, intestinal FXR activation, and GLP-1 receptor inhibition mouse models. Finally, we confirmed in a clinical cohort, that lower serum concentrations of HCA species were associated with diabetes and closely related to glycemic markers.[3] |
Cell Assay |
Western Blot Analysis[3]
Cell Types: NCI-H716 cells Tested Concentrations: 50 μM Incubation Duration: 48 h Experimental Results: Inhibited the high expression of SHP (small heterodimer partner) induced by the FXR agonist. |
Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: BA depletion pigs[3]
Doses: 20 mg/kg Route of Administration: Oral administration (po) Experimental Results: Attenuated the increased blood glucose levels corresponding with GLP-1 decrease. Animal/Disease Models: db/db model, and the high-fat diet and streptozotocin (HFD+STZ) induced diabetic model[3] Doses: 100 mg/kg/day Route of Administration: Oral administration (po) Experimental Results: Improved oral glucose tolerances shown by lower glucose levels. Increased circulating active GLP- 1 levels and fasting insulin levels. |

Additional Infomation |
Hyocholic acid is a trihydroxy-5beta-cholanic acid in which the three hydroxy substituents are located at the 3alpha-, 6alpha- and 7alpha-positions. It has a role as a mouse metabolite, a human urinary metabolite and a rat metabolite. It is a C24-steroid, a 6alpha-hydroxy steroid, a 7alpha-hydroxy steroid and a member of muricholic acids. It is a conjugate acid of a hyocholate.
Hyocholic acid has been reported in Homo sapiens with data available. |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
