Amisulpride is an antagonist of 5-HT7 receptor and dopamine D2 and D3 receptors. It modulates beta 2- arresting signaling and increases neuriteoutgrowth.
6-Bnz-cAMP is a PKA-selective activator. It regulates the PKA dependent signaling pathways. The proliferative signaling pathway which activated by the 6-Bnz-cAMP involves activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor and ERK1/2. Extending the duratio
ACAF4 is a neurotrophic agent which significantly increases survival in PC12 neuronal cells and enhances the effect of nerve growth factor (NGF). ACAF4 induces neuriteoutgrowth, and modulates ERK1 2 and AKT signaling pathways.
Acetylcarnitine arginyl amide is able to stimulate neuriteoutgrowth in a manner similar to that elicited by nerve growth factor (NGF). Neurite induction by this molecule requires de novo mRNA synthesis and is independent of the action of several common t
(-)-L-threo-PDMP is an enhancer of ganglioside biosynthesis. The (-)-L-threo-PDMP (1S,2S) isomer is the active stimulatory component of DL-threo-PDMP in contrast to (+)-D-threo-PDMP , which is an inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthetase. (-)-L-threo-PDMP upregulates GM3, GD3, and GQ1b synthase levels, which are glycosyltransferases involved in ganglioside biosynthesis, and increases ganglioside levels in cells. It increases neuriteoutgrowth and synapse formation in vitro and improves retention of a long-term memory learned prior to forebrain ischemia in rats when administered following ischemia at a dose of 40 mg/kg per day.
Cyclo(L-Phe-L-Val) is a metabolite of the sponge bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. NJ6-3-1 that can autoinduce production of antibacterial substances active against S. aureus when co-cultured at a low cell density. It induces neuriteoutgrowth and branching of chick cortical neurons in vitro when used at concentrations of 16 and 32 μM. It increases phosphorylation of the PI3K substrate Akt, and neuriteoutgrowth induced by cyclo(L-Phe-L-Val) can be blocked by the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 . Cyclo(L-Phe-L-Val) enhances axon sprouting of calcitonin gene-related protein positive (CGRP+) primary afferents in the spinal cord following crush injury and of serotonin neurons in uninjured spinal cord. Cyclo(L-Phe-L-Val) is also a bitter taste component of cocoa and roasted coffee.
1-β-D-Glucosylsphingadienine is a glucosylsphingosine, which are deacetylated lysolipid derivatives of glucosylcerebrosides . They are formed when sphingosines undergo glucosidation by UDP-glucose. Glucosylsphingosines completely reduce neuriteoutgrowth and induce death of LA-N-2 cells at concentrations of 10 and 50 μM, respectively. They also decrease the activity of glucocerebrosidase in LA-N-2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Glucosylsphingosine levels are elevated in patients with Gaucher's disease, both in the spleen (in types 1, 2, and 3) and brain (type 2 and 3); thus, glucosylsphingosine has been used as a key biomarker of the disease. This product contains 1-β-D-glucosylsphingadienine isolated from plants.
