BD-AcAc2  (Synonyms: R,S-1,3-Butanediol acetoacetate diester)

Cat. No.: HY-159007
Handling Instructions Technical Support

BD-AcAc2 (R,S-1,3-Butanediol acetoacetate diester) is an orally active, CNS-penetrant antiepileptic agent. BD-AcAc2 inhibits NF-κB, NLRP3 inflammasome, caspase-1/3, pyroptosis, apoptosis, and enhances autophagy. BD-AcAc2 exhibits antioxidant activity by modulating ROS, MDA, SOD, and GSH levels, and alleviates oxidative stress. BD-AcAc2 mitigates chronic colitis, counteracts Dextran Sodium Sulfate (DSS)-induced pathology, protects against central nervous system oxygen toxicity and acute lung injury, and exhibits anti-seizure efficacy. BD-AcAc2 can be used for the research of colitis, sarcopenia, acute lung injury, seizure, and obesity.

In Vivo

BD-AcAc2 (4% w/w; p.o. 24 days) mitigates chronic DSS-induced colitis in rats[1].
BD-AcAc2 (4% w/w; p.o.; 24 days) induces nutritional ketosis in healthy rats without altering normal colonic structure[1].
BD-AcAc2 (25% of dietary kcals; dietary; 9 weeks) prevents age-related increases in fat mass in mice[2].
BD-AcAc2 (2.5-10 g/kg; p.o.; single dose) protects mice from central nervous system oxygen toxicity and concomitant acute lung injury in a dose-dependent manner[3].
BD-AcAc2 (4 g/kg; i.g.; single dose) significantly increases blood βHB levels and raises the PTZ seizure threshold in rats[4].
BD-AcAc2 (30% of dietary energy; p.o.; 12 weeks) reduces body weight and adiposity in HFD-induced obese mice[5].

Animal Model: Sprague Dawley (male, 7 weeks old, 180-200 g, chronic ulcerative colitis induced by 2% DSS for 7 days, followed by 1% DSS for 10 days, then 2% DSS for 7 days)[1]
Dosage: 4% w/w
Administration: p.o.; ad libitum; 24 days
Result: Increased plasma β-hydroxybutyrate levels, achieving nutritional ketosis.
Significantly reduced the percentage of body weight loss compared to DSS-only rats.
Significantly decreased the colon weight-to-length ratio compared to DSS-only rats.
Significantly reduced the disease activity index and macroscopic damage index compared to DSS-only rats.
Increased survival rate compared to DSS-only rats.
Significantly lowered the colonic inflammation score compared to DSS-only rats.
Significantly suppressed DSS-induced increases in ROS and MDA levels, and significantly reversed DSS-induced decreases in SOD and reduced GSH levels.
Significantly reduced DSS-induced increases in colon tissue levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and IL-18, and reduced IL-4 levels.
Significantly reversed DSS-induced increases in MPO activity, NF-κB DNA binding activity, caspase-1 activity, and active caspase-3 levels.
Significantly reduced DSS-induced increases in NLRP3 mRNA expression, NLRP3 protein levels, and gasdermin D N-terminal fragment (NGSDMD) levels.
Significantly increased BECN1 levels and decreased p62 levels compared to DSS-only rats, indicating enhanced autophagy.
Significantly increased colon tissue levels of tight junction proteins ZO-1, OCLN, and CLDN5 compared to DSS-only rats.
Significantly reversed DSS-induced changes in gut microbiome composition: reduced relative abundance of Fusobacterium spp., Clostridium spp., and increased relative abundance of Bifidobacterium spp. and Lactobacillus spp.
Animal Model: Sprague Dawley rats (male, 7 weeks old, 180-200 g)[1]
Dosage: 4% w/w
Administration: p.o.; 24 days
Result: Increased plasma β-hydroxybutyrate levels, achieving nutritional ketosis.
Showed normal colonic mucosal architecture with regular rounded mucus-secreting glands and intact goblet cells, matching untreated normal rats.
Animal Model: C57BL/6J mice (male, 72 weeks of age, naturally aged to 83 weeks)[2]
Dosage: 25% of dietary kcals
Administration: dietary; ad libitum; 9 weeks
Result: Showed no within-group change in body weight over time.
Prevented within-group increase in fat mass over time.
Increased expression of 6 skeletal muscle genes and decreased expression of 23 skeletal muscle genes.
Reduced fatty acyl chains in triacylglycerol in skeletal muscle.
Increased levels of 11 skeletal muscle proteins and decreased levels of 33 skeletal muscle proteins compared to controls.
Animal Model: C57BL/6 mice (male, 20 g)[3]
Dosage: 2.5; 5.0; 10.0 g/kg
Administration: p.o.; single dose (20 minutes before hyperbaric oxygen exposure)

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
