Amino acid neurotransmitters and new approaches to anticonvulsant drug action.

Epilepsia 25 , S140-S149, (1984)

Amino acids provide the most universal and important inhibitory (gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), glycine) and excitatory (glutamate, aspartate, cysteic acid, cysteine sulphinic acid) neurotransmitters in the brain. An anticonvulsant action may be produced (1)...

L-homocysteine sulfinic acid and other acidic homocysteine derivatives are potent and selective metabotropic glutamate receptor agonists.

J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 305 , 131-143, (2003)

Moderate hyperhomocysteinemia is associated with several diseases, including coronary artery disease, stroke, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, and spina bifida. However, the mechanisms for their pathogenesis are unknown but could involve the interaction of...

Sulphur-containing amino acids are agonists for group 1 metabotropic receptors expressed in clonal RGT cell lines.

Neuropharmacology 37 , 277-287, (1998)

Comparison of the pharmacological effects of a range of sulphur-containing amino acids on human mGluR1alpha and mGluR5a has been undertaken. cDNAs of each mGluR were transfected into a Syrian hamster tumour cell line AV12-664 that was previously transfected w...
