Tauro-β-muricholic acid (TβMCA) is a competitive and reversible antagonist of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR; IC₅₀ = 40 μM) and a taurine-conjugated form of the murine-specific primary bile acid β-muricholic acid . TβMCA accumulates in germ-free mice under normal conditions but is reduced after colonization with feces from a human donor. TβMCA is increased in the intestines of mice resistant to high-fat diet-induced obesity, fatty liver, and diabetes.

Tauro-β-muricholic Acid Sodium Salt is the salt form of Tauro-α-muricholic Acid which is a bile acid released by the liver and is typically used in cholestasis studies.
