Human Endogenous Metabolite |
L-Cysteinesulfinic acid is an endogenous agonist of a metabotropic receptor coupled to stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) activity. L-CSA is an endogenous agonist of the PLD-coupled metabotropic excitatory amino acids (EAA) receptor. L-CSA selectively activates the PLD-coupled receptor. 1 mM L-CSA induces a significant increase in PLD activity in hippocampal slices, whereas 1 mM concentrations of L-glutamate, L-aspartate, and L-HCA are without effect. L-CSA elicits a dose-dependent increase in PLD activity in rat hippocampal slices in the presence of iGluR antagonists, with an approximate EC50 of 500 uM. The PLD response induced by 1 mM L-CSA is not significantly decreased in the presence of 1 uM tetrodotoxin, suggesting that this response is not dependent upon L-CSA-induced increases in cell firing[1].
