A simple and practical general synthetic protocol towards orthogonally protected tHyAsp derivatives fully compatible with Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthetic methodology is reported. Our approach includes enantioresolution of commercially available D: ,L: -tHyAsp racemic mixture by co-crystallization with L: -Lys, followed

Erythropoietin (EPO) is a chemokine hormone that is widely distributed throughout the body including nervous system. For last years its role as cytokine involved in many physiological processes out of the bone marrow has been suggested. Moreover, it plays a

N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor (NMDAr) activation requires the presence of D-serine, synthesized from L-serine by a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent serine racemase (SR). D-serine levels can be lowered by inhibiting the racemization of L-serine. L-serine-O-sulfate (LSOS) and L-erythro-3-hydroxyaspartate (LEHA), among others, have proven

Excitotoxicity secondary to the loss of glutamate transporters (GluT) has been proposed as a possible pathogenetic mechanism for neuronal degeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. We therefore investigated whether prolonged in vivo pharmacologic inhibition of GluT would result in neuronal damage

Glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter, is neurotoxic at high concentrations. Neuroglial cells, including astrocytes and microglia, play an important role in regulating its extracellular levels. Cultured human monocytic THP-1 cells increased their glutamate secretion following 18 and 68 h exposure to
