PD 128907 is a potent and selective agonist of dopamine D2 and D3 receptors. It is used for studying the role of these receptors in the brain, in roles such as inhibitory autoreceptors that act to limit further dopamine release, as well as release of othe
GSK 189254A is a histamine H3 receptor antagonist for the treatment of narcolepsy. Histamine H3 receptor antagonists have been shown to increase the release of neurotransmitters in the brain and to enhance cognition in vivo. The compound may also be usefu
Sapropterin is a naturally occurring essential cofactor of the three aromatic amino acid hydroxylase enzymes, used in the degradation of amino acid phenylalanine and in the biosynthesis of dopamine, epinephrine, melatonin, norepinephrine, neurotransmitter
Folic acid, methyl- is a nutrient that belongs to the vitamin B family. Folate is significant for the easy conversion of carbohydrates into glucose and is essential in red blood cell formation, cell division, detoxification, and the production of some neu
L-Tyrosine-13C9,15N is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of L-tyrosine by GC- or LC-MS. L-Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid.1It is produced by hydroxylation of phenylalanine by phenylalanine hydroxylase but can also be obtained from dietary sources or degradation of endogenous proteins, resulting in L-tyrosine release.1,2L-Tyrosine is a precursor in the biosynthesis of catecholamine neurotransmitters, melanins, and thyroid hormones.3Plasma, skeletal muscle, and erythrocyte levels of L-tyrosine are decreased in patients with chronic kidney disease.1 1.Kopple, J.D.Phenylalanine and tyrosine metabolism in chronic kidney failureJ.

12,14-Dichlorodehydroabietic acid, a chlorinated resin acid, exhibits potent calcium-activated potassium (BK) channel opening activity. It effectively inhibits GABA-dependent chloride influx in the mammalian brain, functioning as a non-competitive antagonist of GABA A receptors. Moreover, 12,14-Dichlorodehydroabietic acid induces an elevation in cytosolic free calcium levels and promotes the release of neurotransmitters.
