aspartic acid and Chemical Dependence

aspartic acid has been researched along with Chemical Dependence in 22 studies

Aspartic Acid: One of the non-essential amino acids commonly occurring in the L-form. It is found in animals and plants, especially in sugar cane and sugar beets. It may be a neurotransmitter.
aspartic acid : An alpha-amino acid that consists of succinic acid bearing a single alpha-amino substituent
L-aspartic acid : The L-enantiomer of aspartic acid.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Various molecules are involved in drug addiction induced by drugs of abuse."2.49[The role of a molecule associated with drug dependence, shati/nat8l]. ( Hori, E; Iegaki, N; Miyamoto, Y; Muramatsu, S; Nabeshima, T; Nishijo, H; Nitta, A; Saika, E; Sumi, K; Uno, K, 2013)
" Chronic use has been suggested to lead to persistent schizophrenia-like neurobiological changes."1.40Glutamate, N-acetyl aspartate and psychotic symptoms in chronic ketamine users. ( Fam, J; Furby, H; Howes, OD; Hughes, E; Morgan, C; Pepper, F; Stone, JM, 2014)
"Individuals with a family history of substance use disorder (FH+) show impaired frontal white matter as indicated by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)."1.40Combining diffusion tensor imaging and magnetic resonance spectroscopy to study reduced frontal white matter integrity in youths with family histories of substance use disorders. ( Acheson, A; Bray, BC; Dougherty, DM; Fox, PT; Gaston, F; Hong, LE; Kochunov, P; Lovallo, WR; Mathias, CW; McGuire, S; Rowland, LM; Wijtenburg, SA; Wright, SN, 2014)
"Nine convulsions occurred in 29 rats withdrawn from barbital and infused intracerebroventricularly with APH, this contrasted markedly with 61 convulsions seen in 29 animals withdrawn from the drug and infused with saline."1.272-Amino-7-phosphonoheptanoic acid, a selective antagonist of N-methyl-D-aspartate, prevents barbital withdrawal-induced convulsions and the elevation of cerebellar cyclic GMP in dependent rats. ( McCaslin, PP; Morgan, WW, 1987)
