Description
OverviewA cell-permeable, short-chained fatty acid that inhibits histone deacetylase (IC50 = 400 µM for HDAC1). Induces differentiation and inhibits proliferation of cell lines derived from human malignant gliomas. At therapeutic levels (0.35 mM - 1.04 mM), causes inositol depletion, inhibits both GSK-3α and -3β, activates ERK pathway and produces neurotropic effects. Has been used as an anti-epileptic agent. Also reported to stimulate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activity. Displays a potent teratogenic activity in humans and rodent models.
