Hans Journal of Biomedicine, 2013 D-丝氨酸主要存在于哺乳动物的前脑，海马区和纹状体，作为胶质细胞释放的神经递质，作用于NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor)受体，引起中枢神经系统中信号的传导。在突触可塑性，学习和记忆等方面起重要作用。丝氨酸消旋酶是一种磷酸吡多醛依赖酶，在ATP和Mg2+的辅助下，通过消旋作用将L型丝氨酸转变为D型丝氨酸。对于神经及精神性疾病，丝氨酸消旋酶可能是一个新的治疗靶点。本文从D-丝氨酸和丝氨酸消旋酶的结构性质，作用机理，功能，调控等方面进行了阐述。 D-serine mainly distributed in the mammalian forebrain, hippocampus and striatum, which as neurotransmit-ters ...

Serine racemase expression and brain D-serine levels in transgenic mice.
, 2013 (A) Schematic representation of the construct for serine racemase overexpression in glial cells under a GFAP promoter. The GFAP promoter is represented as a black line, the serine racemase ORF as a black bar and the SV40 intron/polyA signal as a grey bar.

Urologic Bacteriome: The Hero or the Villain in Prostate Cancer Onset, Progression, and Treatment?
Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 1111-1151, July 2026.ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer in men worldwide and the fifth leading cause of cancer‐related mortality, presenting urgent unmet clinical needs in diagnosis and treatment. The recognition of the microbiome as a key factor in human health has prompted numerous studies, revealing an exciting new approach to ...

Racemisation of Amino Acids: From Synthetic Challenge to Biological Significance
ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.Racemisation, once considered an undesirable synthetic side reaction, also occurs naturally in amino acids and influences biological processes. Evidence links stereochemical conversion to ageing, protein turnover, and cellular development. This review examines mechanisms, control strategies in synthesis, applications and implications in physiology ...

D-Serine Production, Degradation, and Transport in ALS: Critical Role of Methodology
Neurology Research International, 2012 In mammalian systems, D-serine is perhaps the most biologically active D-amino acid described to date. D-serine is a coagonist at the NMDA-receptor, and receptor activation is dependent on D-serine binding. Because D-serine binding dramatically increases

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.A subpopulation of MDCK (NBL‐2) cells, an epithelial cell line derived from the normal kidney, expresses DAO and 3MST. The DAO/3MST‐expressing cells are progressively eliminated during passaging; however, clonal isolation enables the establishment of sublines that maintain stable H2S production. Clonal cells co‐expressing DAO and 3MST therefore provide
