Hepatic biotransformation of lithocholic acid : role of cytochrome P450 enzymes

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the in vitro biotransformation of lithocholic acid (3α-hydroxy-5β-cholanoic acid, LCA). A validated and optimized method to analyze metabolite formation was developed using liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry (LC/MS). LCA (0.5-300...
