• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 8-Hydroxyoctanoic acid is a fatty acid that has been shown to be present in the urine of patients with cancer. It has also been found to inhibit tumor growth in animal models. This compound may have potential as an anti-cancer agent due to its ability to inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis by interfering with the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are important mediators of inflammation. 8-Hydroxyoctanoic acid inhibits the activity of cytochrome P450 enzymes, which are important for the metabolism of many drugs in humans. This inhibition may lead to drug interactions, such as increased concentrations and toxicity from drugs metabolized by these enzymes.
