Biological Activity: 2-Methylvaleric acid is a branched short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) produced by the metabolism of branched-chain amino acids by gut microbes. 2-Methylvaleric acid can be used as a potential biomarker for metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, and its content is significantly reduced in the feces of diabetic mice. 2-Methylvaleric acid may regulate host energy metabolism and inflammatory response through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) or histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition. 2-Methylvaleric acid can be used to study gut microbe-host interactions and metabolic diseases as a fecal biomarker[1][2].

Valproic acid | 99.90% | Valproic acid (VPA) is an orally active HDAC inhibitor, with IC50 in the range of 0.5 and 2 mM. Valproic acid inhibits HDAC1 (IC50, 400 μM), and induces proteasomal degradation of HDAC2. Valproic acid activates Notch1 signaling and inhibits proliferation in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells. Valproic acid is used in the epilepsy, bipolar disorder, metabolic disease, HIV infection and prevention of migraine headaches. | ||||||||||||||||||||

2-Methylhexanoic acid (Standard) | ≥98% | 2-Methylhexanoic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of 2-Methylhexanoic acid (HY-128371). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. 2-Methylhexanoic acid is a saturated branched-chain carboxylic acid with a strong "fatty" or "oily" odor. At high concentrations, it is often described as having the smell of lard, chicken fat or sweat; when diluted, it exhibits a dairy, cream or cheese aroma. Therefore, it is commonly used in the formulation of milk, meat (pork/chicken) and baked food flavors. 2-Methylhexanoic acid occurs naturally in fresh apples, cheese, grape brandy, lamb, potatoes and tea. | ||||||||||||||||||||
