(-)-Aspartic acid (1, 10, 30 mM) inhibits HGF cell pyroptosis through the TLRs-NLRP3-caspase 1-GSDMD pathway to prevent gingival fibroblast inflammation[1]. (-)-Aspartic acid (0.1, 1, 10 nM, 48 h) stimulates steroid production in mammalian Leydig cell lines by regulating LH receptor (LHR) exposure on the cell membrane[2]. (-)-Aspartic acid acts as a neuropeptide co transmitter by releasing glutamate or GABA as its main neurotransmitter pathway [5]. (-)-Aspartic acidactivates cAMP dependent gene transcription, inhibits CREB function, reduces BDNF expression, and induces excitotoxic neuronal death[5].
