L-Homocysteic acid
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
L-Homocysteic acid (L-HCA) is an endogenous excitatory amino acid that acts as a NMDA receptor agonist (EC50: 14 μM). L-Homocysteic acid is neurotoxic, and can be used in the research of neurological disorders.

L-Homocysteic acid activates NMDA receptor with an EC50 value of 14 μM[1].
L-Homocysteic acid (100 μM) induces large currents (1.8 nA) that is insensitive to the NMDA receptor-antagonist mixture in Purkinje cells[1].
L-Homocysteic acid (250 μM, 30 min) potently induces an acute excitotoxic reaction in ex vivo chick embryo retina[2].
L-Homocysteic acid (0-2 mM, 48 h) induces a concentration-dependent neurotoxic effect in rat primary neurons[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
L-Homocysteic acid (intraperitoneal injection, 100-1500 mg/kg) partially substitutes for NMDA, producing maximum values of 61-67% NMDA-lever responding at doses of 1000 and 560 mg/kg, respectively in Sprague-Dawley rats[5].
