Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-Hydroxycapric acid
Description3-Hydroxycapric acid (CAS: 14292-26-3) is a normally occurring carboxylic acid in human blood plasma. Medium- and long-chain 3-hydroxymonocarboxylic acids represent intermediates in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. They accumulate in the plasma of patients with an inherited deficiency of long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.35) (PMID: 1912723 ). 3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (HADH) deficiency has been described in diverse clinical cases: juvenile-onset recurrent myoglobinuria, hypoketotic hypoglycemic encephalopathy, hypertrophic/dilatative cardiomyopathy, sudden infant death, and fulminant hepatic failure (OMIM: 231530 ). 3-Hydroxycapric acid has some shape-transforming action on the membrane of intact human erythrocytes (PMID: 7318031 ).
