Description

3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid is a hydroxylated fatty acid that has been found in the LPS of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and in methyl-branched poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) (PHA) polymers produced by Pseudomonas oleophores. It is an agonist of the orphan receptor GPR109B, increasing intracellular calcium in human neutrophils endogenously expressing GPR109B. 3-Hydroxycaprylic acid prevents lipolysis in human adipocytes and is upregulated in human plasma in response to a ketogenic diet. Plasma levels of 3-hydroxyoctanoic acid were also increased 3.41-fold in human male runners exhausted on a treadmill and in a mouse model of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) fed a high-glycemic diet.–20°C, 3 years; 4°C, 2 years (Powder)-Applications–Formula-C8H16O3-Citation–References–CASNumber-14292-27-4-MolecularWeight-160.21-Compound Purity-95.92-SMILES-CCCCCC(O)CC(O)=O-Research_Area-Others-Solubility-DMSO : 42.5 mg/mL (ultrasonic;warming;heat to 60°C)-Target-Biochemical Assay Reagents-Isoform–Pathway-Others-MCE Product type-Biochemical Assay Reagents
