About this Product
SKU:
HY-B1189
Additional Names:
Dicrotalic acid; 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaric acid
CAS Number:
503-49-1
Extra Details:
Meglutol is a lipid-lowering agent. Meglutol can reduces cholesterol; triglycerides; serum β-lipoprotein; and phospholipids; and inhibits the activity of HMG-CoA reductase (a rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis). Meglutol can induce significant lipid oxidative damage in brain tissue. It is promising for research in the field of cardiovascular diseases and metabolic diseases[1][2].
