“…2‐Hydroxyglutaric acid (2‐hg) is a dicarboxylic acid with a hydroxyl group at the alpha carbon, forming the enantiomers (R)‐2‐ hydroxyglutaric acid (R‐2‐hg) (Figure 1A) and (S)‐2‐hydroxyglutaric acid (S‐2‐hg) (Figure 1B).1 Though detectable in normal tissues, the detection of 2‐hg enantiomers in bodily fluids first gained traction in patients with 2‐hydroxyglutaric acidurias, a disease which leads to pathologically increased levels of either enantiomer.2,3. …Serum samples acquired from ten individual healthy donors were obtained from Innovative Research (Novi, MI, USA)…”
