Cat. No.: HY-100808 Purity: ≥98.0%
COA Handling Instructions

D-Serine ((R)-Serine), an endogenous amino acid involved in glia-synapse interactions that has unique neurotransmitter characteristics, is a potent co-agonist at the NMDA glutamate receptor. D-Serinee has a cardinal modulatory role in major NMDAR-dependent processes including NMDAR-mediated neurotransmission, neurotoxicity, synaptic plasticity, and cell migration.

Description

D-Serine ((R)-Serine), an endogenous amino acid involved in glia-synapse interactions that has unique neurotransmitter characteristics, is a potent co-agonist at the NMDA glutamate receptor. D-Serinee has a cardinal modulatory role in major NMDAR-dependent processes including NMDAR-mediated neurotransmission, neurotoxicity, synaptic plasticity, and cell migration[1][2].

In Vitro

(R)-Serine is synthesized from L-Ser by serine racemase (SR) and degraded by D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) and SR. Distribution of D-Ser and NMDAR as determined by chemical measurement and immunohistochemistry supports D-Ser as an endogenous coagonist acting on the glycine modulatory site of the NR1 subunits of the NMDAR[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

(R)-Serine (10 g/L; p.o.; throughout 8 weeks) regulates HFD induced weight gain[4].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Four week old male C57Bl/6 mice
Dosage: 10 g/L
Administration: Oral administration (drinking water supplemented with 10 g/l D-serine); throughout 8 weeks
Result: Showed strongly reduced weight gain during the first week of supplementation with paralleled weight gain to HFD fed mice, but no catch up thereafter.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
