SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate 

SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate, a natural compound, is a methyl donor in the central nervous system. SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate has antidepressant activity. SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate can be used for research of CNS disorders^[1][2][3][4].

SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate (30 and 60 mg/kg/day, i.m) increases the thickness and cell density of lesioned cartilages in experimental osteoarthritis rabbit^[2].
SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate (60 and 100 mg/kg/day, i.m) protects from liver injury induced by d-galactosamine in rats^[3].
SAMe-1,4-Butanedisulfonate (10-200 mg/kg, i.p.) shows antidepressant-like effects mice submitted to the forced swimming test (FST) and tail suspension test (TST)^[4].
