Glycochenodeoxycholic acid is a bile salt formed in the liver from chenodeoxycholic acid and glycine, usually found as the sodium salt.[1][2] It acts as a detergent to solubilize fats for absorption.[citation needed]
Positive associations were observed between prediagnostic plasma levels of seven different conjugated bile acid metabolites, including glycochenodeoxycholic acid, and colon cancer risk.[3] These findings support experimental data suggesting that a high bile acid load promotes colon cancer.[3][4]
