[East China Normal University Tian Yang]Published on 2025.9.3 Research Highlights Glutamate (Glu) plays a critical role in the brain, and the ability to directly measure glutamate activity is essential for understanding its physiological functions and pathological processes. This paper presents a series of glutamate sensors (TympGn) designed based on the indicator displacement assay (IDA). The … Read more

Exercise May Reduce the Toxic Effects of Excess Glutamate in the Brain

Exercise May Reduce the Toxic Effects of Excess Glutamate in the Brain

Recently, a study published in the international journal Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism by researchers from the University of Guelph found that exercise may potentially reduce the toxic accumulation of glutamate in the brain, while also decreasing the severity of various brain disorders, such as Huntington’s disease. Glutamate is an amino acid that forms proteins, … Read more
