Synonym(s): Sodium Valproate (2:1); VPA sodium (2:1); 2-Propylpentanoic acid sodium (2:1)
- CAS No.: 76584-70-8
- Formula:C8H15O2.1/2Na
- Molecular Weight:154.71
SMILES: CCCC(CCC)C([O-])=O.[0.5 Na+]
Biological Activity: Valproic acid (VPA) sodium (2:1) is an orally active HDAC inhibitor, with IC50 in the range of 0.5 and 2 mM, also inhibits HDAC1 (IC50, 400 μM), and induces proteasomal degradation of HDAC2. Valproic acid sodium (2:1) activates Notch1 signaling and inhibits proliferation in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells. Valproic acid sodium (2:1) is used in the treatment of epilepsy, bipolar disorder, metabolic disease, HIV infection and prevention of migraine headaches[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].
