Biological Activity
fatty acids with medium chain lengths (particularly hexanoic acid). 5-Hydroxyhexanoic acid functions as a predictor of early renal functional decline in type 2 diabetes with microalbuminuria[1].
5-Hydroxyhexanoic acid serves as a predictor of early renal function decline in type 2 diabetes mellitus with microalbuminuria, and its specificity is superior to that of urinary albumin excretion rate[1].
