Research Overview
TUDCA (tauroursodeoxycholic acid) is a taurine-conjugated bile acid applied as a tool compound to study bile-acid receptors and transporters, ER stress signaling (UPR branches such as PERK/IRE1/ATF6), mitochondrial apoptosis cascades and cholestasis-related endpoints under strictly controlled laboratory conditions.
Primary Research Areas
-
Bile-acid signaling & transport: FXR/TGR5 pathways and bile-acid transporter function in cellular systems.
-
ER stress & UPR: PERK/IRE1/ATF6 branches, chaperone responses and protein-folding homeostasis.
-
Mitochondrial apoptosis: Studies of cytochrome c release, caspase activation and membrane integrity.
-
Cholestasis models: In vitro frameworks exploring bile-flow obstruction and related biochemical readouts.
