Dimethyl succinate is the inactive analog of dimethyl fumarate. Dimethyl succinate has a pleasant, ethereal, winey odor and a fruity, winey, and burning flavor. It is used in foods as a flavoring ingredient. Dimethyl succinate was found at increased concentrations in the culture medium of the lung cancer cell line A549 and in the urine of mice implanted with A549 cells. Dimethyl succinate could be used to prolong the insulinotropic action of GLP-1 in the treatment of type-2 diabetes and it may represent a novel therapeutic approach in endotoxemia and multiple-organ failure.

Sample Use Guides

Rat: 5.0 uM/g body weight
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
alpha- and beta-D-glucose pentaacetate (1.7 mM each) augmented, to almost the same extent, insulin release caused by succinic acid dimethyl ester (10.0 mM) in rat pancreatic islets. The release of insulin provoked by succinic acid dimethyl ester was inhibited, however, by alpha-D-galactose pentaacetate, whilst being unaffected by beta-D-galactose pentaacetate (each also 1.7 mM).
