Description:4-Acetamidobutyric acid (4AA) is a metabolite of acetamide, an amide of the amino acid butyric acid. It is a byproduct of protein and lipid metabolism in the liver and kidney. 4AA is excreted in urine as a covalent adduct with glutathione, which may be related to its role in protecting cells from oxidative damage. The concentration of 4AA has been shown to be elevated in patients with chronic renal failure and metabolic disorders, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus. It has also been found to have diagnostic value for cancer, drug reactions, and diagnosis of metabolic disorders.
