Apocholic acid is a product of mild dehydration of cholic acid. Apocholic acid is powerful complexing and enolizing agent, giving stable addition-compounds (“choleric acids”) with numerous organic molecules. It was shown, that apocholic acid is able to produce tumors in situ. Apocholic acid was found to have a decreasing effect on the cholesterol level of both the plasma and the liver of rats.
