3-Oxo-5β-cholanoic acid (Dehydrolithocholic acid), a bile acid metabolite, inhibits the diferentiation of TH17 cells by directly binding to the key transcription factor RORγt (Kd=1.13 μM).
体外研究
Treatment with 3-Oxo-5β-cholanoic acid significantly reduced the activity of the RORγt reporter. These data suggest that 3-Oxo-5β-cholanoic acid probably inhibits TH17 cell differentiation by physically interacting with RORγt, and inhibiting its transcriptional activity.
