L-Pipecolic acid (Standard)

L-Pipecolic acid (Standard) is an analytical standard of L-Pipecolic acid. This product is used for research and analytical applications. L-Pipecolic acid (H-HoPro-OH) is an oral active metabolite of Lysine and can accumulate in the bodily fluids of infants with autosomal inherited diseases, such as Zellweger syndrome and neonatal adrenal insufficiency. L-Pipecolic acid can promote muscle cell health and growth by enhancing protein synthesis, and plays a role in promoting gut health. L-Pipecolic acid holds promise for research in the fields of metabolic disorders, muscle growth disorders, and intestinal diseases^[1][2][3]. In Vitro:L-Pipecolic acid (100 μM, 30 minutes) significantly increases the rate of protein synthesis in C2C12 myotubes, showing stronger effects than L-lysine (HY-N0469)^[3]. In Vivo:L-Pipecolic acid (250 mg/kg, p.o., once a day, for 7 days) improves intestinal motility in loperamide-induced constipated mice and increases 5-HT levels^[2].
