L-Glutamic acid is a non-essential amino acid and the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the CNS.{54095} It acts on ionotropic and metabotropic receptors to induce excitatory synaptic transmission and has roles in synaptic plasticity. Excessive release of L-glutamic acid induces excitotoxicity that is associated with various human diseases, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), stroke, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and Huntington’s disease.{54096} Excessive L-glutamic acid release, in its protonated glutamate form, also occurs during seizure activity and contributes to epileptogenesis and seizure-induced brain damage.{54097}
