| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
(S)-3-Hydroxybutanoic acid is a metabolite and a disease marker of depression. 3-Hydroxybutyric acid is synthesized in the liver from acetyl-CoA, and can be used as an energy source by the brain when blood glucose is low. | [Definition]
ChEBI: The S-enantiomer of 3-hydroxybutyric acid; a normal human metabolite, that has been found elevated in geriatric patients remitting from depression. | [IC 50]
Human Endogenous Metabolite | [storage]
