Product Description: Glycyl-L-glutamic acid is a neurotrophic factor (NF) in vivo, and exerts function of maintenance of AChE content and activity. Glycyl-L-glutamic acid doesn’t act directly on AChE synthesis, and may prevent preganglionic neuronal degeneration[1][2].
Applications: Neuroscience-Neuromodulation
Formula: C7H12N2O5
