  <name>(S)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid</name>
  <description>(S)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid is a normal human metabolite, that has been found elevated in geriatric patients remitting from depression. (PMID 17048218)
3-Hydroxybutyric acid is a ketone body. Like the other ketone bodies (acetoacetate and acetone), levels of 3-Hydroxybutyric acid are raised in ketosis. In humans, 3-Hydroxybutyric acid is synthesized in the liver from acetyl-CoA, and can be used as an energy source by the brain when blood glucose is low. [HMDB]</description>
