Description

Glutamic acid is a non-essential amino acid that has been shown to play an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Glutamic acid has been shown to be involved in the production of glutamate, which is a neurotransmitter that can lead to neuronal death. Glutamic acid also plays an important role in the maintenance of mitochondrial membrane potential and energy metabolism. Glutamate is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, and it regulates the release of other neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin. This amino acid may also be involved in brain functions and neurotrophic factors.
