N,N-Dimethylglycine hydrochloride  (Synonyms: Dimethylglycine hydrochloride; DMG hydrochloride; N-Methylsarcosine hydrochloride)

N,N-Dimethylglycine (Dimethylglycine) hydrochloride is a natural N-methylated glycine, is a nutrient supplement and acts as an NMDAR glycine site partial agonist. N,N-Dimethylglycine hydrochloride is a methyl donor, could improve immunity, function as an antioxidant to prevent oxidative stress, and scavenge excess of free radicals. N,N-Dimethylglycine hydrochloride exhibits antidepressant-like and surfactant effects^[1][2][3].

N,N-Dimethylglycine (40 mg/mL) hydrochloride shows 88.40%, 98.90%, and 87.58% scavenging activities in the DPPH radical scavenging, ABTS⁺ radical scavenging, and H₂O₂ scavenging experiments^[3].

N,N-Dimethylglycine (30-100 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; twice a day; 14 days) hydrochloride prevents the behavioral abnormalities and synaptic dysfunction induced by repeated drug exposure in male ICR mice^[1].
N,N-Dimethylglycine (12 mg/0.3 mL sterile saline; gavage; single dose; subcutaneous injection 1 hour later) hydrochloride improves the histological morphology of the small intestine, enhances the antioxidant system, reduces oxidative damage, and increases the expression of antioxidant-related genes in male Kunming mice^[2].
N,N-Dimethylglycine (12 mg/0.3 mL sterile saline; gavage; twice a day; 28 days) hydrochloride increases the body weight, the organ proportion of the liver and spleen, enhances the antioxidant capacity of serum and liver, and reduces the activities of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) as well as the malondialdehyde (MDA) content in serum and liver in male Kunming mice^[3].
N,N-Dimethylglycine (12 mg/0.3 mL sterile saline; gavage; twice a day; 28 days) hydrochloride reduces the serum ALT and AST contents, the ROS level in hepatic mitochondria, and increases the antioxidant capacity of hepatic mitochondria and the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) level in male Kunming mice with Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) (HY-D1056)-induced oxidative stress model^[3].
