Product Overview:
3-Aminoisobutyric acid is a non-protein amino acid formed during thymine catabolism.{47337} It induces browning in primary adipocytes, increasing the expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP-1) and CIDEA when used at a concentration of 5 µM. It also increases the expression of PPARα in primary adipocytes and in mouse inguinal white adipose tissue (WAT) in vivo and increases β-oxidation in hepatocytes. Plasma levels of 3-aminoisobutyric acid are increased in mice following exercise and, when administered at a dose of 100 mg/kg per day, it decreases weight gain and body fat percentage without decreasing food intake or increasing energy expenditure, and improves glucose tolerance. Levels of 3-aminoisobutyric acid are elevated in the plasma, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with β-ureidopropionase deficiency, a disorder characterized by an inborn error of pyrimidine degradation.{47338}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
