Cavalcante D, Nunes A, da Silva E, de Carvalho G, Chiareli R, Oliveira-Lima O, et al.
Exp Neurol . 2024 Oct; 383:115006. PMID: 39424040
Glycine Transporter Type 1 (GlyT1) inhibition confers neuroprotection against different forms of cerebral damage. This effect occurs through the elevation of synaptic glycine concentrations, which enhances N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) activation...

J Pharm Pharmacol . 2024 Jul; 76(9):1199-1211. PMID: 38982944
The Glycine Transporter Type 1 (GlyT1) significantly impacts central nervous system functions, influencing glycinergic and glutamatergic neurotransmission. Bitopertin, the first GlyT1 inhibitor in clinical trials, was developed for schizophrenia treatment...

Neurochem Res . 2024 Jun; 49(9):2535-2555. PMID: 38888830
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of amyloid-β, leading to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent synaptic depression, spine elimination, and memory deficits. Glycine transporter type 1 (GlyT1)...

Neurochem Res . 2023 Sep; 49(1):170-183. PMID: 37684384
The glutamatergic hypothesis of schizophrenia suggests a correlation between NMDA receptor hypofunction and negative psychotic symptoms. It has been observed that the expression of the proline transporter (PROT) in the...

Pharmacol Rep . 2023 Jan; 75(2):276-292. PMID: 36719635
Background: L-proline transporter (PROT/SLC6A7) is closely associated with glutamatergic neurotransmission, where L-proline modulates the NMDA receptor (NMDAR) function. NMDAR-mediated excitotoxicity is a primary cause of neuronal death following stroke, which...
