3-Phenylpropionic acid (hydrocinnamic acid, HA) is an end-product of the bacterial degradation of unabsorbed phenylalanine in the intestinal lumen. HA is used in ice cream, drinks, and candy manufacture field as a flavoring agent. In recent years, HA is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. Hydrocinnamic Acid inhibits the currents of WT and SQT3 syndrome-related mutants of Kir2.1 channel.

Curator's Comment: A 20 mg bolus with infusion of 1 mg/min of phenylpropionic acid decreased blood glucose levels of normal [110 +/- 12 to 66 +/- 11 mg/dL, N = 7, P < 0.05 (unpaired Student's t-test vs control)] and streptozocin diabetic rats [295 +/- 14 to 225 +/- 12 mg/dL, N = 7, P < 0.01 (paired t-test vs basal)]. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8960065

In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: The Kir2.1 currents were recorded after 24-h transfection of Kir2.1 DNA plasmid to HEK293T cells. Kir2.1 showed very strong inwardly rectifying properties.
3-Phenylpropionic acid (hydrocinnamic acid, HA) can inhibit the currents of Kir2.1 channel in both excised inside-out and whole-cell patch with the IC50 of 5.21 ± 1.02 and 10.08 ± 0.46 mM, respectively. 20 mM HA completely abolished the currents.
