Sarcosine
Sarcosine is a dual-function small molecule that competitively inhibits the glycine transporter GlyT1 and acts as a co-agonist at NMDA receptors. It is widely used in neuroscience research to study glutamatergic neurotransmission, synaptic plasticity, and related mechanisms in models of psychiatric and neurological disorders.
