a significant reduction <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> body weight <strong>of</strong> mice<br />
induces<br />
a high fat diet (Watanabe, 2006). Since compound 1<br />
fed<br />
<strong>the</strong> same cholestane structure with bile acids, ligands<br />
has<br />
this receptor, TGR5 assay was accomplished with this<br />
for<br />
using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and a<br />
isolate<br />
acid, lithocholic acid as a positive control. However,<br />
bile<br />
compound failed to show agonistic activity on TGR5<br />
this<br />
It was suggested that it could have resulted <strong>from</strong><br />
receptor.<br />
<strong>of</strong> negatively charged functional groups or presence<br />
lack<br />
a double bond to increase molecular rigidity or bulky<br />

moieties <strong>of</strong> this bisdesmosidic cholestane<br />
