L-Glutamic acid
L-Glutamic acid is a major excitatory neurotransmitter that acts as an agonist at ionotropic (AMPA, NMDA, KA) and metabotropic (mGluR) glutamate receptors. It is widely used in neuroscience research to study receptor function, dopaminergic interactions, and models of neurological diseases in both in vitro and in vivo experimental systems.
