| Targets |
3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid targets the hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1 (HCA1), also known as GPR81, where it acts as an agonist. By activating this receptor, it inhibits lipolysis in adipocytes. The compound is also a competitive inhibitor for tyrosine phenol-lyase (TPL), exhibiting an affinity with a Ki of 25.7 μM. These targets place it in the metabolic enzyme/protease and GPCR/G protein pathways.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, 3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid functions as a selective agonist of HCA1/GPR81 with an EC50 of approximately 150 μM. It inhibits lipolysis in wild-type mouse adipocytes. It also acts as a competitive inhibitor of tyrosine phenol-lyase with a Ki of 25.7 μM. These activities suggest it plays a role in metabolic regulation and can be used as a tool to study these pathways.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid is orally active. Its role as a food metabolite and biomarker suggests it is absorbed and distributed in the body. Its ability to activate HCA1 and inhibit lipolysis indicates it may have potential in managing metabolic conditions related to lipid metabolism. However, specific in vivo efficacy data are not extensively documented. The compound is used as an analytical standard in research and analytical applications.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For in vitro receptor binding and enzyme assays, 3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid can be evaluated. For HCA1/GPR81 agonism, a cell-based assay using a fluorescent calcium indicator can measure receptor activation. For tyrosine phenol-lyase inhibition, the enzyme is incubated with its substrate (e.g., L-tyrosine) and varying concentrations of the inhibitor. The production of phenol or pyruvate is measured spectrophotometrically to determine the Ki.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell-based assays, the activity of 3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid can be studied using adipocyte cell lines. Adipocytes are treated with the compound, and lipolysis is measured by quantifying the release of glycerol or free fatty acids into the medium. Its effects on cell signaling pathways, such as the HCA1-mediated inhibition of cAMP production, can be assessed. The compound's potential antioxidant activity can also be evaluated in cell models of oxidative stress.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, 3,5-Dihydroxybenzoic acid is typically administered orally. Its effects on lipid metabolism can be studied in rodent models of obesity or metabolic syndrome. Parameters such as serum free fatty acid levels, triglyceride levels, and insulin sensitivity can be measured. Its pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution can also be studied to understand its role as a food metabolite.

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (16.22 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (16.22 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
