QUICK LINKS

Glycolithocholic acid sodium salt, a bile acid, plays a role in cholesterol metabolism. It promotes the synthesis of bile acids within the liver, which are subsequently released into the small intestine to aid in the absorption of dietary lipids. Additionally, this compound acts as an agonist for the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor responsible for regulating genes associated with bile acid and lipid metabolism.
