The original Acros Organics product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
General description
- D-Cycloserine was originally isolated from Streptomyces orchidaceus and is currently formulated as an oral antibiotic
- It is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents but stable under basic conditions, with the greatest stability at pH = 11.5
- D-Cycloserine inhibits L-alanine racemase and D-alanine:D-alanine ligase, 2 enzymes responsible for bacterial cell wall synthesis
- When ingested, D-Cycloserine traverses the blood-brain barrier, potentially causing neurological side effects such as, dizziness, nausea, depression, tremors, etc.
Applications
- D-Cycloserine is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used as a second line agent for treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis, always in combination with other antituberculosis agents
- It is an excitatory amino acid and partial agonist of the NMDA receptor in the central nervous system (CNS), thus playing a potential role in the amelioration of neuropathic pain
- D-Cycloserine has also been shown to play a role in neural connectivity, and is therefore used to study treatment applications in anxiety disorders and schizophrenia
