Abstract

We studied the effects of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) and its synthetic derivatives. HS-l030 and HS-1183. and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) and its synthetic derivatives, HS-1199 and HS-1200. on the human colon adenocarcinoma cell line. HT -29 (p53 mutant type). The effects on cell viability and growth were assessed by MTT assay and cell growth study. While UDCA and CDCA exhibited no significant effect, their novel derivatives inhibited the proliferation of HT-29 cell line in a concentration- and time-dependent manners. (omitted)
