Molarity Calculator

L-Glutamic acid is an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter that acts as an agonist for all subtypes of glutamate receptors (metabolic rhodophylline, NMDA, and AMPA). L-Glutamic acid has an agonist effect on the release of DA from dopaminergic nerve endings. L-Glutamic acid can be used in the study of neurological diseases. L-Glutamic acid acts at ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors.

L-Glutamic acid (2, 5, 10, 20 mM, 24-48 h) can induce neuroexcitotoxicity in neuroblastoma^[4].

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

Cell Viability Assay^[4]

Cell Line:	SH-SY5Y, IMR-32, SK-N-BE(2)
Concentration:	2, 5, 10, 20 mM
Incubation Time:	24 and 48 h
Result:	Reduced cell viability in a dose-dependent manner.

In Vivo

L-Glutamic acid (3 g/kg, subcutaneous injection) can promote excitotoxic degeneration of retinal ganglion cells in mice^[1].
L-Glutamic acid (750 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection) can reduce and inhibit oxidative stress induced by chlorpyrifos (CPF) in rats^[5].

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

Animal Model:	Crv4 mice model^[1]
Dosage:	3 g/kg
Administration:	s.c., single dose
Result:	Reduced the number of Brn-3a⁺ RGCs by >70%. In the absence of mGlu1 receptor, MSG-induced retinal damage is diminished.

Animal Model:	CPF-induced rat model^[5]
Dosage:	750 mg/kg
Administration:	i.p.
Result:	Reduced CPF-induced oxidative stress by increasing the level of GSH and activity of GSH-related enzymes.

In Vivo:

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

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.
