Hydroxypropyl cellulose is a highly branched, water-soluble molecule ubiquitous in both plants and animals. It has a range of applications in the realm of scientific research, contributing to investigations in various settings. Hydroxypropyl cellulose has been utilized in studies probing the impact of various substances on cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, death, and cell cycle progression. Additionally, it has been used to understand the influence of these substances on metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. It′s believed to function as a substrate for specific enzymes, including glycosyltransferases, involved in the synthesis of other polysaccharides. Similarly, it′s thought to serve as a substrate for enzymes that play a role in carbohydrate metabolism.
