Deoxycholic acid
Identification
- Summary
Deoxycholic acid is a cytolytic agent injected subcutaneously to improve the appearance submental fat.
- Brand Names
- Belkyra, Kybella
- Generic Name
- Deoxycholic acid
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB03619
- Background
Deoxycholic acid is a a bile acid which emulsifies and solubilizes dietary fats in the intestine, and when injected subcutaneously, it disrupts cell membranes in adipocytes and destroys fat cells in that tissue. In April 2015, deoxycholic acid was approved by the FDA for the treatment submental fat to improve aesthetic appearance and reduce facial fullness or convexity. It is marketed under the brand name Kybella by Kythera Biopharma and is the first pharmacological agent available for submental fat reduction, allowing for a safer and less invasive alternative than surgical procedures.

- Pharmacodynamics

- Mechanism of action
As a bile acid, deoxycholic acid emulsifies fat in the gut. Synthetically derived deoxycholic acid, when injected, stimulates a targeted breakdown of adipose cells by disrupting the cell membrane and causing adipocytolysis. This results in an inflammatory reaction and clearing of the adipose tissue remnants by macrophages. Deoxycholic acid's actions are reduced by albumin and tissue-associated proteins, therefore its effect is limited to protein-poor subcutaneous fat tissue. Protein-rich tissues like muscle and skin are unaffected by deoxycholic acid, contributing to its safety profile.

Deoxycholic acid is rapidly absorbed after subcutaneous administration. After maximum recommended single treatment dose, 100mg, the post-treatment plasma levels returned to endogenous levels within 24 hours. With the proposed treatment guideline, no accumulation is expected.

- Metabolism
Deoxycholic acid is not metabolized to any significant extent under normal conditions.
- Route of elimination
The exogenous deoxycholic acid joins the endogenous bile acid pool in the enterohepatic circulation and is excreted unchanged in feces along with endogenous deoxycholic acid.
