DL-Cycloserine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
DL-Cycloserine is an orally active aminotransferase inhibitor. DL-Cycloserine exhibits completely opposite effects on the activity of monoamine oxidase in different tissues. DL-Cycloserine can be used for the research of pulmonary tuberculosis, psychosomatic diseases, and depressive states.

Biological Activity
DL-Cycloserine (0.4-4 mM) significantly inhibits MAO activity in 33% rat liver homogenate and significantly stimulates MAO activity in 50% rat brain homogenate at the same concentrations[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
DL-Cycloserine (350-700 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) significantly suppresses Tryptamine (HY-B2132)-induced convulsions in H Rosice mice[1].
DL-Cycloserine (350-700 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) significantly blocks Reserpine (HY-N0480)-induced eyelid ptosis in female H Rosice mice[1].
DL-Cycloserine (175 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) induces sedation in female H Rosice mice, following an initial short excitation phase, causing 100% of mice to fail the rotating-rod test by 90 minute[1].
DL-Cycloserine (87.5-350 mg/kg; p.o.; single dose) significantly potentiates thiopental anaesthesia in female H Rosice mice, and induces hypothermia[1].

-
Animal Model:H Rosice (18-23 g)[3]
-
Dosage:350 mg/kg; 700 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose

-
Animal Model:H Rosice (female, 18-23 g)[3]
-
Dosage:350 mg/kg; 700 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose
-
Result:Significantly blocked reserpine-induced ptosis at 350 mg/kg when administered simultaneously with Reserpine (statistically significant vs. controls).
Exerted equally significant blocking effect at 700 mg/kg when administered simultaneously with Reserpine.
Showed a small but significant blocking effect at 350 mg/kg when administered 2 hours after Reserpine.
Exerted a stronger significant blocking effect at 700 mg/kg when administered 2 hours after Reserpine.
-
Animal Model:H Rosice (female, 18-23 g)[3]
-
Dosage:175 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose
-
Result:Produced an initial short excitation phase, followed by a sedative effect.
Increased the percentage of mice unable to balance on the rotating rod to 100% by 90 minutes post-administration, with the sedative effect persisting through 180 minutes.
-
Animal Model:H Rosice (female, 18-23 g)[3]
-
Dosage:87.5 mg/kg; 175 mg/kg; 350 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose
-
Result:Potentiated thiopental anaesthesia with an anaesthesia index of approximately 9 at 1 hour and 16 at 2 hours post-administration at 175 mg/kg (both statistically significant vs. controls).
Induced a decline in body temperature at 87.5 mg/kg, 175 mg/kg, and 350 mg/kg.
