Question #14000
How does gamma-D glutamyl glycine affect the brain?
Expert's answer
Gamma-D glutamyl glycine is a low-affinity glutamate receptor competitive
antagonist and in this way it can inhibit a function of glutamate-the major
excitatory transmitter in the brain. Therefore it has impact on the most aspects
of normal brain function including cognition, memory and learning.
