Introduction:
Ursodeoxycholic Acid is a secondary bile acid derived from cholic acid. It is produced in the liver and is a key component of bile, which aids in the digestion and absorption of dietary fats. UDCA has a unique chemical structure that distinguishes it from other bile acids and gives it distinct therapeutic properties.
Function:
UDCA exerts a range of functions in the human body. Its primary function is to promote bile flow, which helps to dissolve cholesterol gallstones and prevent the formation of new ones. UDCA also has hepatoprotective effects, meaning it helps protect the liver from damage caused by various factors, such as certain medications, alcohol, or liver diseases. Moreover, it has been found to possess anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties, which make it useful in the treatment of certain autoimmune liver diseases.
Application:
Due to its beneficial effects on the liver and bile system, UDCA is commonly used in clinical practice. It is widely prescribed for the treatment of gallstones, especially in patients who are unable or unwilling to undergo surgical intervention. UDCA is also used in the management of certain liver conditions, including primary biliary cholangitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis. Additionally, it has shown promise as a potential therapeutic agent for other liver diseases, such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
