Abstract: This study aimed to assess the antioxidative activity of glycocholic acid (GCA), one of the extracts from bile of cattle and sheep, on mouse peritoneal macrophages. A total of 5 experimental groups with mass concentrations of 1×10-3, 1×10-4, 1×10-5, 1×10-6 and 1×10-7 μg/mL of GCA were included. The mouse peritoneal macrophages were incubated with different concentrations of GCA for 24 hours, and the activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)and superoxide dismutase (SOD), as well as the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), were determined according to the methods provided in the kit instructions. The results demonstrated that GCA reduced the level of MDA and elevated the activities of GSH-Px and SOD in mouse peritoneal macrophages, indicating its effective role in regulating the level of antioxidative stress in mouse peritoneal macrophages. In conclusion, GCA has the capacity to improve the antioxidative stress response.

Key words: glycocholic acid, mouse peritoneal macrophages, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde
