Bioactivity

Target IC50
DU-145 cells:30.4 µM|HCT116 cells (p53−/−):37.4 ± 3.8 μM (LD50)|PC3 cells:32.0 µM|HCT116 cells (wt):46.8 ± 2.6 μM (LD50)|USP2a:31.1 ± 3.4 µM
In Vivo
METHODS: To investigate the antiviral effect of Lithocholic acid, Lithocholic acid oleate (3%) and Lithocholic acid (0.5%), derivatives of LCA, were administered to HSV-1 virus infected mice. RESULTS: Mice treated with Lithocholic acid oleate+Lithocholic acid 48 hours before virus inoculation showed lesions on day 6 after infection, and the wound healing was better than that of the acyclovir treatment group, with reduced scar formation and better skin repair.
In Vitro
METHODS: Human A549, HCT-116, HT-29, Huh-7, LoVo, MGC-803, RKO, SK-HEP1, SW480 cells were treated with Lithocholic acid (200, 100, 50, P < 0.05). 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.125, 1.5625 μM) were used to detect the cell growth inhibition by MTT method. RESULTS: Lithocholic acid did not affect the growth of A549, HCT-116, HT-29, Huh-7, LoVo, MGC-803, RKO, SK-HEP1, and SW480 cells (IC50> 200 µM). METHODS: Human Caco2 and HT-1080 cells were treated with Lithocholic acid (0.1-1000 μM) for 24 hours, and the cytotoxicity was detected by MTT assay. RESULTS: Lithocholic acid significantly inhibited the growth of Caco2 (IC50=56 μM) and HT-1080 cells (IC50=23 μM). METHODS: Human DLD1, HCT-116, and HCT-8 cells were treated with Lithocholic acid (25, 50, 100, 150, and 200μM) for 48 hours, and the cytotoxicity was detected by MTT assay. RESULTS: Lithocholic acid significantly inhibited the growth of human DLD1 (IC50=173.1 μM), HCT-116 (IC50=81.1 μM) and HCT-8 (IC50=97.4 μM) cells.
