Function
3-Hydroxycapric acid (CAS: 14292-26-3) is a normally occurring carboxylic acid in human blood plasma. Medium- and long-chain 3-hydroxymonocarboxylic acids represent intermediates in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids. They accumulate in the plasma of patients with an inherited deficiency of long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.35). 3-Hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (HADH) deficiency has been described in diverse clinical cases: juvenile-onset recurrent myoglobinuria, hypoketotic hypoglycemic encephalopathy, hypertrophic/dilatative cardiomyopathy, sudden infant death, and fulminant hepatic failure (OMIM: 231530). 3-Hydroxycapric acid has some shape-transforming action on the membrane of intact human erythrocytes.
