Metabolite Identification
Common NameAcifran
Description5-methyl-4-oxo-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid, also known as reductol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furanones. Furanones are compounds containing a furan ring bearing a ketone group. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 5-methyl-4-oxo-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid. This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Acifran is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Acifran is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway
Specific function:
Acts as a high affinity receptor for both nicotinic acid (also known as niacin) and (D)-beta-hydroxybutyrate and mediates increased adiponectin secretion and decreased lipolysis through G(i)-protein-mediated inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. This pharmacological effect requires nicotinic acid doses that are much higher than those provided by a normal diet. Mediates nicotinic acid-induced apoptosis in mature neutrophils. Receptor activation by nicotinic acid results in reduced cAMP levels which may affect activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A and phosphorylation of target proteins, leading to neutrophil apoptosis. The rank order of potency for the displacement of nicotinic acid binding is 5- methyl pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid = pyridine-3-acetic acid > acifran > 5-methyl nicotinic acid = acipimox >> nicotinuric acid = nicotinamide
