  • Scientific Description
    Chemical. CAS: 6168-83-8. Formula: C4H8O3. MW: 104.1. Physiologically insignificant stereoisomer of (R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid, a key metabolite of the ketolytic pathway. Anticonvulsant. Endogenous inhibitor of histone deacetylases (HDACs) 1, 3 and 4. Ligand of free fatty acid receptor 3 (FFAR3; GPR41) and hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 2 (HCAR2; GPR109B). NLRP3 inflammasome inhibitor. Prevents K+-efflux and reduces ASC oligomerization and speck formation. - Physiologically insignificant stereoisomer of (R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid, a key metabolite of the ketolytic pathway.
