Additional Infomation |
N-acetyl-L-aspartic acid is an N-acyl-L-aspartic acid in which the acyl group is specified as acetyl. It has a role as a nutraceutical, an antioxidant, a human metabolite, a mouse metabolite and a rat metabolite. It is a N-acetyl-L-amino acid and a N-acyl-L-aspartic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a N-acetyl-L-aspartate(2-).
N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid is a metabolite found in or produced by Escherichia coli (strain K12, MG1655). N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid has been reported in Homo sapiens and Caenorhabditis elegans with data available. N-Acetylaspartate is the acetylated form of aspartic acid synthesized in the mitochondria of neurons from aspartic acid and acetyl-coenzyme A. Although highly concentrated in neurons, the exact biological role of N-acetylaspartate has yet to be identified. N-acetylaspartate can act as a neuronal marker and brain levels are decreased in many neuropathological conditions. N-Acetylaspartic acid is a derivative of aspartic acid. It is the second most concentrated molecule in the brain after the amino acid glutamate. It is synthesized in neurons from the amino acid aspartate and acetyl coenzyme A. The various functions served by N-acetylaspartic acid are still under investigation, but the primary proposed functions include:. 1) A neuronal osmolyte that is involved in fluid balance in the brain 2) A source of acetate for lipid and myelin synthesis in oligodendrocytes, the glial cells that myelinate neuronal axons 3) A precursor for the synthesis of the important neuronal dipeptide N-acetylaspartylglutamate 4)N-Acetylaspartic acid may also be involved in energy production from the amino acid glutamate in neuronal mitochondria. |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
