4-Phenylbutyric acid (Cat No.:R048396), also known as Benzenebutyric acid, is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor that plays a significant role in regulating hepatic hepcidin against HCV (Hepatitis C virus). By inhibiting HDAC, it modulates the acetylation of histones, leading to changes in gene expression and epigenetic regulation. Furthermore, 4-Phenylbutyric acid exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by modulating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and autophagy in an acute lung injury model induced by LPS (lipopolysaccharide). Its diverse properties make it a potential candidate for various therapeutic applications, including hepatic and inflammatory conditions.
