Glycine-based treatment ameliorates NAFLD by modulating fatty acid oxidation, glutathione synthesis, and the gut microbiome

Science Translational Medicine, 2020
A glycine- and leucine-based tripeptide improves symptoms in a mouse model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, which lacks approved treatments. Amino acids alleviate liver disease Glycine is known to be reduced in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver ...

Glycine and glycine receptor signalling in non-neuronal cells [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2009
Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter acting mainly in the caudal part of the central nervous system. Besides this neurotransmitter function, glycine has cytoprotective and modulatory effects in different non-neuronal cell types. Modulatory effects were mainly described in immune cells, endothelial cells and macroglial cells, where glycine ...

On the differential hydration of various forms of glycine in diluted aqueous solutions: a Monte Carlo study

Macedonian Journal of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, 2012
Rigid-body Monte Carlo simulations were carried out to study the differential hydration of zwitterionic and neutral forms of glycine in water. To account for the solute polarization by the rather polar liquid environment, initial geometries were chosen ...

Functional cooperation of the glycine synthase-reductase and Wood–Ljungdahl pathways for autotrophic growth of Clostridium drakei

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Despite sharing the first four reactions, coutilization of the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway (WLP) with the glycine synthase-reductase pathway (GSRP) and reductive glycine pathway (RGP) to fix C1 compounds has remained unknown. In this study, using
