3‐hydroxybutyrate in the brain: Biosynthesis, function, and disease therapy
Brain-X, 2023 3‐hydroxybutyrate (3HB), or BHB, is an anionic small molecule acid metabolite with a hydroxyl group. 3HB is the major ketone body that is distributed in the human brain and its primary energy source when glucose is absent.
