Biochem/physiol Actions
Hydroxamic acid derivatives of valproic acid exhibit anticonvulsant activity with no teratogenic activity in mouse neural tube defect model. It is effective in the treatment of bipolar disorders.
VAHA (Valproyl hydroxamic acid) is an HDAC inhibitor with less activity than valproic acid against Class I enzymes but much greater Class II activity

Biomedical & environmental mass spectrometry, 13(11), 599-603 (1986-11-01)
A previously unreported substance, detected by gas chromatography after oximation of urine from patients receiving valproic acid, was isolated and analysed by mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It was identified as the hydroxamate of valproic acid.

Inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) depletion has been implicated in the therapeutic action of bipolar disorder drugs, including valproic acid (VPA). It is not currently known whether the effect of VPA on InsP3 depletion is related to the deleterious effects of teratogenicity or

Neurotoxicology and teratology, 30(5), 390-394 (2008-05-06)
Fluorinated and non-fluorinated valproic acid (VPA) analogues with hydroxamic acid moieties were tested for their teratogenic, anticonvulsant and neurotoxic potencies in mice. Compounds were synthesized from their corresponding acids. The induction of neural tube defects (exencephaly) of the resulting hydroxamates
