Dimebutic acid sodium
Dimebutic acid sodium is an orally active short-chain fatty acid. Dimebutic acid sodium stimulates fetal globin production and alters the balance of Bcl family proteins. Dimebutic acid sodium prolongs red blood cell survival. Dimebutic acid sodium exhibits toxicity in rats. Dimebutic acid sodium can be used in the study of β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease.
