N-acetyltaurine is an orally active endogenous sulfonate that is synthesized from taurine and acetate in the renal cortex. N-acetyltaurine supports bacterial growth as a sole fixed nitrogen or carbon source. N-acetyltaurine buffers acetyl moieties of mitochondrial acetyl-CoA in skeletal muscle. N-acetyltaurine reduces food intake and body weight in obese and lean wild-type mice in a GFRAL-dependent manner. N-acetyltaurine can be used for the research of diet-induced obesity, hyperacetatemia and diabetes[1][2][3][4][5].
