Pirinixic Acid (NSC 310038) 是一种过氧化物酶体增殖剂，可激活特定的过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体 (PPAR)。它对鼠的PPARα和 PPARγ 的EC50值分别为 0.63 和 32 μM，对人的PPARα、PPARγ 和 PPARδ 的EC50值分别为 5.0 、60 和 35 μM。

Hexanoyl glycine is an acylated amino acid that is used as a urinary biomarker for several indications. It is normally biosynthesized from hexanoyl-CoA and glycine by the mitochondrial enzyme glycine N-acyltransferase. Increased urinary excretion of hexanoyl glycine in humans is indicative of a deficiency in medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Increased urinary hexanoyl glycine can also be used as a biomarker for exposure to gamma radiation. Levels of hexanyl glycine can also be elevated during cancer, while they are decreased 20-fold in mice following treatment with the PPARα ligand Wy 14643.
