About this Product
SKU:
HY-30004
Application:
Immunoprecipitation
CAS Number:
22059-21-8
Extra Details:
1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid is an endogenous metabolite. In the presence of low concentrations (1 μM) of glutamate; 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid acts as a small molecule agonist of NMDA receptors with an EC50 of 0.7-0.9 μM. At high concentrations (10 μM) of glutamate; 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid acts as a competitive antagonist of NMDA receptors with an EC50 of 81.6 nM. 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid exerts neuroprotective activity by moderately activating NMDA receptors to prevent neuronal cell death in ischemic animal models. Additionally; 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid is an antagonist of NMDA receptors; inducing blood pressure reduction and antioxidant effects in stroke-prone hypertensive rats. 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid enhances object recognition memory and cognitive flexibility dependent on the prefrontal cortex; but does not affect impulsivity nor exhibit an antipsychotic-like profile. 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid shows promise for research in the field of neurotoxicity.[1][2][3].
