Beschreibung

Hexanoyl glycine is a fatty acid that is used in the treatment of metabolic disorders, particularly those involving energy metabolism. Hexanoyl glycine inhibits the activity of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and 3-ketoacyl-coenzyme A thiolase, two enzymes involved in the oxidation of fatty acids. It also has been shown to inhibit the synthesis and release of ethylmalonic acid from cells, which can be used as a diagnostic for bowel disease. Hexanoyl glycine has been shown to have inhibitory properties against tumor cells but does not affect healthy cells. This property may be due to its ability to bind with DNA and prevent transcription and replication.
