butyric acid and Hemoglobinopathies

butyric acid has been researched along with Hemoglobinopathies in 5 studies

Butyric Acid: A four carbon acid, CH3CH2CH2COOH, with an unpleasant odor that occurs in butter and animal fat as the glycerol ester.
butyrate : A short-chain fatty acid anion that is the conjugate base of butyric acid, obtained by deprotonation of the carboxy group.
butyric acid : A straight-chain saturated fatty acid that is butane in which one of the terminal methyl groups has been oxidised to a carboxy group.

Hemoglobinopathies: A group of inherited disorders characterized by structural alterations within the hemoglobin molecule.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Butyric acid has been viewed with skepticism because of less convenient for long-term chronic therapy."6.40Role of butyric acid and its derivatives in the treatment of colorectal cancer and hemoglobinopathies. ( Pouillart, PR, 1998)
" The fact that valproic acid, a derivative of pentanoic acid, also induces gamma-globin expression suggests that short-chain fatty acid derivatives that are already approved for human use may possess the property of gamma-globin inducibility and may be of therapeutic relevance to the beta-chain hemoglobinopathies."3.69Stimulation of fetal hemoglobin production by short chain fatty acids. ( Blau, CA; Dover, G; Fournarakis, B; Josephson, B; Li, Q; Liakopoulou, E; Papayannopoulou, T; Raisys, V; Stamatoyannopoulos, G; Wolf, JA, 1995)
" However, application of these drugs at large is not yet justified because a series of questions concerning their long-term efficacy, the correct dosage and timing, their tolerance and toxicity, and the potential long-term dangers, including mutagenicity are still unresolved."2.40New therapies for the haemoglobinopathies. ( Loukopoulos, D, 1997)
"Butyric acid has been viewed with skepticism because of less convenient for long-term chronic therapy."2.40Role of butyric acid and its derivatives in the treatment of colorectal cancer and hemoglobinopathies. ( Pouillart, PR, 1998)
