Chemical Structure
Glutamic acid sodium salt
Synonym(s): Monosodium glutamate
- CAS No.: 32221-81-1
- Formula:C5H8NNaO4
- Molecular Weight:169.11
IUPAC Name: sodium 4-amino-4-carboxybutanoate
InChIKey: LPUQAYUQRXPFSQ-UHFFFAOYSA-M

Biological Activity: Glutamic acid sodium salt (Monosodium glutamate) is an orally active food flavor enhancer. Glutamic acid sodium salt causes ROS generation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and Apoptosis. Glutamic acid sodium salt upregulates CHOP, Grp78, and Bcl-2. Glutamic acid sodium salt impairs cognition, induces depressive-like behavior, induces hyperalgesia, and induces obesity and insulin resistance. Glutamic acid sodium salt can be used to study neurotoxicity (e.g., brain damage, cognitive impairment), metabolic disorders (e.g., obesity, insulin resistance), hepatotoxicity, and renal toxicity, as well as pain-related disorders[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8].
