6-(Dihydroxyboranyl)hexanoic acid

CAS: 954118-11-7

6-(Dihydroxyboranyl)hexanoic acid is a synthetic compound that has been shown to have antidiabetic, cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory properties. It inhibits the activity of protein kinase C, which is a key regulator of insulin signaling in muscle and adipose tissue. 6-(Dihydroxyboranyl)hexanoic acid has been shown to lower ventricular end-diastolic pressure and improve cardiac function in type 2 diabetic rats. The inhibition constant for this compound is less than 1 mM when it is used as an inhibitor of protein kinase C. This substance also has a ph of 7.5, which may be due to its ion-exchange properties with the phosphate group on serine or tyrosine residues. It can be used as a cryopreservative because it has good stability at low temperatures.
