Beschreibung

3-Trifluoromethylbutyric acid is a synthetic compound that has been studied as a potential drug for the treatment of dyslipidemia. 3-Trifluoromethylbutyric acid binds to the enzyme phosphatase, which is a key regulator of lipid metabolism and controls the production of lipids in cells. This binding prevents the phosphatase from breaking down phosphoinositides, leading to an increase in the levels of phosphoinositides. The resulting increase in the levels of these molecules causes an increase in the number of insulin receptors on cell surfaces and leads to an improvement in insulin sensitivity. 3-Trifluoromethylbutyric acid also has binding sites on human cells that are specific for subtype 7, which is associated with lower risk for cardiovascular disease, obesity, and diabetes.
