description The article summarizes the literature data on the expansion of the range of application of ursodeoxycholic acid due to its various mechanisms of action. Almost 50-year history of the study of its properties has proven choleretic, litholytic, antiapoptotic, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, cytoprotective, antifibrotic and hypocholesterolemic effects. In addition to the well-known functions of bile acids, their role has been shown as signa­ling, endocrine molecules that regulate glucose, lipids, and energy metabolism through pathways mediated by the activation of the nuclear receptor of the farnesoid X receptor and the cell surface G protein-coupled receptor, TGR5. The variety of nosological forms in which this substance can be successfully used is substantiated.
