They then measured the glutamate levels at a later point, allowing them to assess changes over time, and compare these changes to experiences with bullying or lack thereof, as well as with any ...

"It's not intuitive to think the most prevalent receptor for the major neurotransmitter in the brain is also present in the lens," senior investigator Peter Frederikse, PhD, from the University of ...

Both glutamic acid and glutamine are amino acids. And while their names sound similar and they both come from the same family of amino acids known as the glutamates, they are different. Glutamic acid ...
