Capryloylglycine
Capryloylglycine is an acylglycine consisting of caprylic acid (an 8-carbon medium chain fatty acid) conjugated to glycine. Acylglycines have an aliphatic acyl chain attached to the amino group of glycine through a peptide bond. Capryloylglycine is a solid with moderate solubility in water. Acylglycines are produced through the action of the enzyme glycine N-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.13). Acylglycines are normally minor metabolites of fatty acids. However, the excretion of certain acylglycines is increased in several inborn errors of metabolism. In certain cases, the measurement of these metabolites in body fluids can be used to diagnose disorders associated with mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation, including medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency and multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenation defect (MAD) (PMID: 10708405). Capryloylglycine is frequently used as a cosmetic ingredient where it functions as a conditioning agent or a surfactant. It helps protect the skin’s surface from water loss and can enhance the effectiveness of cosmetic preservatives. Capryloylglycine-containing creams have been shown to inhibit hair growth in individuals suffering from hypertrichosis (PMID: 33934471), due to it inhibiting ornithine decarboxylase 1, which is present in hair follicles. Capryloylglycine is an acyl glycine. Acyl glycines are normally minor metabolites of fatty acids. However, the excretion of certain acyl glycines is increased in several inborn errors of metabolism. In certain cases the measurement of these metabolites in body fluids can be used to diagnose disorders associated with mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation. Acyl glycines are produced through the action of glycine N-acyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.13) which is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction:

Valproylglycine
In humans, valproylglycine has been identified as a urinary metabolite of Valproic acid (Abbott and Anari 1999) along with VPA-glutamate conjugate.Valproic acid (VPA; 2-n-propylpentanoic acid) is widely used as a major drug in the treatment of epilepsy and in the control of several types of seizures.
