The Effect Of Bile Acid Derivatives On Smooth Muscle Function Through Calcium Ion Channels
Abstract
In recent decades, the development of pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences has increasingly focused on the in-depth study of biologically active compounds, especially those derived from natural sources. This is due to the fact that naturally sourced substances often show better compatibility with the human body, lower toxicity, and broad-spectrum pharmacological activity. From this perspective, bile acids and their derivatives occupy an important place in pharmaceutical research.
