It is a potent uremic toxin that has been found to accumulate in human serum of patients with chronic kidney diseases. It has a role as a uremic toxin and a human metabolite. It is a dicarboxylic acid and a furoic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropionate(2-) and a 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoate.

Uremic toxins such as 3-Carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furan-propanoic acid are actively transported into the kidneys via organic ion transporters (especially OAT3). Increased levels of uremic toxins can stimulate the production of reactive oxygen species. This seems to be mediated by the direct binding or inhibition by uremic toxins of the enzyme NADPH oxidase (especially NOX4 which is abundant in the kidneys and heart) (A7868). Reactive oxygen species can induce several different DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) which are involved in the silencing of a protein known as KLOTHO. KLOTHO has been identified as having important roles in anti-aging, mineral metabolism, and vitamin D metabolism. A number of studies have indicated that KLOTHO mRNA and protein levels are reduced during acute or chronic kidney diseases in response to high local levels of reactive oxygen species (A7869).
As a uremic toxin, this compound can cause uremic syndrome. Uremic syndrome may affect any part of the body and can cause nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and weight loss. It can also cause changes in mental status, such as confusion, reduced awareness, agitation, psychosis, seizures, and coma. Abnormal bleeding, such as bleeding spontaneously or profusely from a very minor injury can also occur. Heart problems, such as an irregular heartbeat, inflammation in the sac that surrounds the heart (pericarditis), and increased pressure on the heart can be seen in patients with uremic syndrome. Shortness of breath from fluid buildup in the space between the lungs and the chest wall (pleural effusion) can also be present.
UsesCMPF is a drug-binding inhibitor which is also a constituent of urine. CMPF can inhibit specific T4 binding in serum by increasing the free concentration of direct competitors.
General Description3-Carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid (CMPF), a major metabolite of furan fatty acids, is a uremic toxin (UT), excreted into the urine via organic,anion transporters under physiological conditions. It is mostly reported to be accumulated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Monitoring of CMPF may be important to predict organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B activity in CKD patients as studies have implicated a decreased trend in (OATP)1B activity in patients with this uremic toxin. It is also found to be in increased concentrations, for patients who progress from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes, patients with renal failure, polyunsaturated fatty acids with high-temperature cooking and subjects who consume fish or fish oil.
