4-phenylbutyric acid and Fatty Liver

4-phenylbutyric acid has been researched along with Fatty Liver in 5 studies

4-phenylbutyric acid: RN refers to the parent cpd
4-phenylbutyric acid : A monocarboxylic acid the structure of which is that of butyric acid substituted with a phenyl group at C-4. It is a histone deacetylase inhibitor that displays anticancer activity. It inhibits cell proliferation, invasion and migration and induces apoptosis in glioma cells. It also inhibits protein isoprenylation, depletes plasma glutamine, increases production of foetal haemoglobin through transcriptional activation of the gamma-globin gene and affects hPPARgamma activation.

Fatty Liver: Lipid infiltration of the hepatic parenchymal cells resulting in a yellow-colored liver. The abnormal lipid accumulation is usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES, either as a single large droplet or multiple small droplets. Fatty liver is caused by an imbalance in the metabolism of FATTY ACIDS.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The aim of this study was to investigate the intervention effects of an endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) inhibitor 4-phenylbutyric acid (PBA) on liver steatosis induced by high-fructose feeding in rats and the possible underlying mechanisms."3.79The chemical chaperon 4-phenylbutyric acid ameliorates hepatic steatosis through inhibition of de novo lipogenesis in high-fructose-fed rats. ( Chen, SC; Hu, ZJ; Li, F; Peng, L; Ren, LP; Song, GY; Sun, W; Wei, L; Zhang, M, 2013)
"Fenofibrate treatment preserved AdipoR2 and phosphorylated AMPK (pAMPK) levels in palmitate-treated cells accompanied by reduced triglyceride (TG) accumulation and less activation of ER stress markers CCAAT/enhancer binding (C/EBPbeta) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha."1.35Fenofibrate and PBA prevent fatty acid-induced loss of adiponectin receptor and pAMPK in human hepatoma cells and in hepatitis C virus-induced steatosis.
