Description
Isovaleric acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of Isovaleric acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. Isovaleric acid is an oral active short-chain fatty acid that inhibits osteoclast differentiation by stimulating AMPK phosphorylation and promotes colonic smooth muscle relaxation by activating the cAMP/PKA pathway. Isovaleric acid can be used in research on skeletal diseases (such as osteoporosis) and intestinal disorders[1][2][3][4].
