Common NameThreonic acid
DescriptionThreonic acid, also known as threonate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sugar acids and derivatives. Sugar acids and derivatives are compounds containing a saccharide unit which bears a carboxylic acid group. Threonic acid is a sugar acid derived from threose. The L-isomer is a metabolite of ascorbic acid (vitamin C). One study suggested that because L-threonate inhibits DKK1 expression in vitro, it may have potential in the treatment of androgenic alopecia (PMID: 21034532 ). Threonic acid is probably derived from glycated proteins or from degradation of ascorbic acid. It is a normal component in aqueous humour and blood (PMID: 10420182 ). Threonic acid is a substrate of L-threonate 3-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.129) In the ascorbate and aldarate metabolism pathway (KEGG). It has been found to be a microbial metabolite (PMID: 20615997 ).
