| photoinitiator | photoinitiator (photo initiator), which also forms photosensitizer or photocuring agent, is a kind of compound that can absorb energy of a certain wavelength to release free radicals and induce luminescence polymerization. Common types are: 1 benzoin and ethers 2 benzophenones 3 benzoyl 4 acetophenone 5 thioanthracenones. |
| biological activity | 4-Phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA, Benzenebutyric acid) is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, which is the main epigenetic inducer of liver hepcidin against HCV. 4-Phenylbutyric acid inhibits LPS-induced inflammation by modulating endoplasmic reticulum pressure endoplasmic-reticulum (ER) stress and autophagy in an acute lung injury model. |
