Description

Triiodothyropropionic acid is a metabolite of thyroxine, an important hormone that regulates the basal metabolic rate. It has been shown to be involved in the repair mechanism of cardiac and liver cells. Triiodothyropropionic acid is also a major metabolite of thyroxine and it is produced by the action of hydroxylases on thyroxine with water vapor as the substrate. This compound has been shown to increase cardiac function and improve heart tissue repair at physiological levels. The uptake, distribution, and excretion of triiodothyropropionic acid are similar to those for thyroxine. The metabolism of triiodothyropropionic acid occurs mainly in the liver, where it is converted into fatty acids such as 3-hydroxybutyric acid. Triiodothyropropionic acid has been shown to have effects on protein genes and rat liver microsomes.
