Val-CDCA is a conjugate of chenodeoxycholate (CDCA) and C-24 L-Valine, primarily targeting the sodium-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP). This compound effectively inhibits taurocholate uptake in human NTCP-stably transfected HEK293 cells, indicating its potential utility in research related to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Val-CDCA serves as a valuable tool for studies investigating bile acid transport and its implications in liver diseases.
