| Material Notes | 3-hydroxycapric acid 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-hydroxyacylCoA dehydrogenase [EC 1.1.1.35]. (PMID: 1912723) 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (HADH) has been described in diverse clinical cases: in cases of juvenile-onset recurrent myoglobinuria, hypoketotic hypoglycemic encephalopathy, in hypertrophic/dilatative cardiomyopathy, in sudden infant death, and in fulminant hepatic failure. (OMIM 231530) 3-hydroxycapric acid has some shape-transforming action on the membrane of intact human erythrocytes. (PMID: 7318031) [HMDB] |
