Glycodeoxycholic acid is a bile acid derived from deoxycholic acid and glycine. Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 ðC [77 ðF], 100 kPa).
Serum concentration of glycodeoxycholic acid, a downstream microbial metabolite of cholic acid, is strongly associated with an increased risk of proximal colorectal cancer among women.
