4-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)butanoic acid

CAS: 7021-11-6

4-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)butanoic acid (4HPBA) is a naturally occurring compound that has been shown to inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria. This compound blocks the synthesis of cell walls by binding to the enzyme transglycosylase, inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis and leading to bacterial death. 4HPBA also inhibits nerve injury caused by ciprofloxacin in rats by preventing demethylation and copolymerization, which leads to functional groups. This compound may have potential use as a topical treatment for ulcers, wounds, and burns. However, more research is needed to determine its safety and efficacy in humans.
