Common Name | 4-Hydroxycrotonic acid |
---|
Description | 4-Hydroxycrotonic acid, also known as 4-hydroxy-2-butenoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxy fatty acids. These are fatty acids in which the chain bears a hydroxyl group. 4-Hydroxycrotonic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. It is an analogue of γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB), as well as an active metabolite of GHB. T-HCA binds to the high-affinity GHB receptor with 4-fold greater affinity than GHB itself, where it acts as an agonist, but does not bind to the low-affinity GHB binding site, the GABAB receptor. Because of this, T-HCA does not produce sedation, and instead causes convulsions, which are thought to be caused by GHB receptor activation-evoked increases in extracellular glutamate concentrations, with one notable area where this occurs being the hippocampus. 4-Hydroxycrotonic acid was first documented in 1982 (PMID: 7107749). Similarly to GHB, T-HCA has been found to be endogenous to the rat central nervous system, and as a metabolite of GHB, is almost certain to be endogenous to humans as well. |
