Description
- Catabolite of thymine [1-4].
- Precursor for 3-Hydroxyisobutyric acid synthesis [3].
- Small molecule myokine. Browning inducer of white adipose tissue (WAT) into brown adipose tissue (BAT) [9, 10].
- PGC-1α-mediated and exercise-triggered nonadrenergic activator of the thermogenic program in WAT. Increases the expression of brown adipocyte-specific genes (browning) in white adipocytes and β-oxidation in hepatocytes through a PPARα-mediated mechanism [9, 10].
- Induces a brown adipose-like phenotype in human pluripotent stem cells and improves glucose homeostasis [9, 10].
- Enhances fatty acid oxidation and reduces body weight in mice through an increased production of leptin by the white adipose tissue (WAT) [5-7].
- Inhibits Agxt2-mediated metabolism of dimethylarginines [8].
- Partial agonist of the glycine receptor (GlyR) [4].
