Tributyrin
Tributyrin is a stable, membrane-permeable prodrug of butyric acid, which is intracellularly hydrolyzed to release active butyrate. It is widely used in oncology and cell biology research for its established pro-apoptotic, anti-proliferative, and differentiation-inducing effects in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
