产品描述

N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid is an acetylated form of L-aspartic acid.1 It is formed from L-aspartate and acetyl-CoA by L-aspartate N-acetyltransferase (Asp-NAT) in neuronal mitochondria.2 N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid is hydrolyzed to L-aspartate and acetate by aspartoacylase (ASPA), which is expressed by oligodendrocytes. N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid levels are increased in the brain of patients with Canavan disease, an autosomal recessive disorder caused by loss-of-function ASPA mutations and characterized by cognitive and motor impairments.3,2,1

N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid: a literature review of a compound prominent in 1H-NMR spectroscopic studies of brain

Neurosci Biobehav Rev 1989 Spring;13(1):23-31.PMID:2671831DOI:10.1016/s0149-7634(89)80048-x.

N-acetyl aspartic acid (NAA), discovered in 1956 by Tallan, is the major peak seen in water-suppressed NMR proton (hydrogen) spectroscopy. NAA makes up about one thousandth of the wet weight of human brain and appears to be limited solely to neurons. This compound has been shown to be relatively stable for a period of twenty-four hours post-mortem and the concentration of NAA is not changed by insulin-induced hypoglycemia. MAO inhibitors lower its concentration while reserpine and other drugs increase it. NAA has been implicated in many processes of the nervous system: it may be involved in the regulation of neuronal protein synthesis, myelin production, or the metabolism of several neurotransmitters such as aspartate or N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate. It is involved in the neurologic disorder Canavan disease and has grown to be a vital component of in vivo 1H-NMR spectroscopic studies.

Metabolomic changes in animal models of depression: a systematic analysis

Mol Psychiatry 2021 Dec;26(12):7328-7336.PMID:34471249DOI:10.1038/s41380-021-01269-w.

Extensive research has been carried out on the metabolomic changes in animal models of depression; however, there is no general agreement about which metabolites exhibit constant changes. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify consistently altered metabolites in large-scale metabolomics studies of depression models. We performed vote counting analyses to identify consistently upregulated or downregulated metabolites in the brain, blood, and urine of animal models of depression based on 3743 differential metabolites from 241 animal metabolomics studies. We found that serotonin, dopamine, gamma-aminobutyric acid, norepinephrine, N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid, anandamide, and tryptophan were downregulated in the brain, while kynurenine, myo-inositol, hydroxykynurenine, and the kynurenine to tryptophan ratio were upregulated. Regarding blood metabolites, tryptophan, leucine, tyrosine, valine, trimethylamine N-oxide, proline, oleamide, pyruvic acid, and serotonin were downregulated, while N-acetyl glycoprotein, corticosterone, and glutamine were upregulated. Moreover, citric acid, oxoglutaric acid, proline, tryptophan, creatine, betaine, L-dopa, palmitic acid, and pimelic acid were downregulated, and hippuric acid was upregulated in urine. We also identified consistently altered metabolites in the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex, serum, and plasma. These findings suggested that metabolomic changes in depression models are characterized by decreased neurotransmitter and increased kynurenine metabolite levels in the brain, decreased amino acid and increased corticosterone levels in blood, and imbalanced energy metabolism and microbial metabolites in urine. This study contributes to existing knowledge of metabolomic changes in depression and revealed that the reproducibility of candidate metabolites was inadequate in previous studies.

A review of phylogenetic and metabolic relationships between the acylamino acids, N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid and N-acetyl-L-histidine, in the vertebrate nervous system

J Neurochem 1997 Apr;68(4):1335-44.PMID:9084403DOI:10.1046/j.1471-4159.1997.68041335.x.

N-Acetyl-L-histidine (NAH) and N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid (NAA) are major constituents of vertebrate brain and eye with distinct phylogenetic distributions. They are characterized by high tissue concentrations, high tissue/extracellular fluid gradients, and a continuous regulated efflux into the extracellular fluid. As a result of parallel investigations over the past three decades, evidence has accumulated that suggests that the metabolism of NAA in the CNS of both homeothermic and poikilothermic vertebrates and the metabolism of NAH in the CNS of poikilothermic vertebrates are related. Tissue distribution and concentrations are similar, as well as timing of appearance during embryological development and their synthetic and degradative biochemistry. Both amino acids appear to be involved in a rapid tissue-to-fluid-space cycling phenomenon across a membrane. Evidence accumulating for each amino acid suggests a dynamic and important role in the CNS and the eye of vertebrates. A genetic disease in humans, Canavan's disease, is associated with NAA aciduria and aspartoacylase deficiency with concomitant accumulation of NAA and a spongy degeneration of the brain. In this article, evidence linking NAA and NAH metabolism is reviewed, and the hypothesis that NAA and NAH complement each other and are metabolic analogues involved with membrane transport is developed. Their enzyme systems also appear to exhibit plasticity in relation to osmoregulatory forces on an evolutionary time scale, with an apparent interface at the fish-tetrapod boundary.

Quantification of N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid in urine by isotope dilution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

J Inherit Metab Dis 1992;15(1):97-104.PMID:1583881DOI:10.1007/BF01800351.

A method for quantification of N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid by isotope dilution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using 15N-[2H3]acetyl-L-aspartic acid is described. The method is sufficiently sensitive to be used with solvent extraction techniques commonly employed for urinary organic acid analysis. The mean concentration of N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid in 80 normal and abnormal control urine specimens was 19.7 +/- 10.8 mg/g creatinine (12.7 +/- 7.8 mmol/mol creatinine). Seven patients, ages 9 months to 7 years, with Canavan-van Bogaert syndrome had urinary N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid levels from 606 to 4760 mg/g creatinine. The method can also be used with cerebrospinal fluid, in which the concentration of N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid is about one-tenth of that in urine.

Mutagenicity studies with N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid

Food Chem Toxicol 2009 Aug;47(8):1936-40.PMID:19445994DOI:10.1016/j.fct.2009.05.005.

Analytical studies have reported that N-Acetyl-L-aspartic acid (NAA) is present at low concentrations in many foods. The current studies were conducted to assess the mutagenicity of NAA using standard OECD guideline in vitro bacterial and in vivo mammalian mutagenicity studies. For comparison and control data, mutagenicity studies were also conducted with its constituent amino acid L-aspartate (ASP) because NAA is metabolized to ASP. The combination of an in vitro method for assessing point mutations in bacteria and an in vivo method to assess clastogenicity in an animal model provided adequate evidence for mutagenicity hazard assessment of NAA. No evidence of mutagenicity was observed in either test system with either NAA or ASP. The results from the current studies demonstrate that the presence of NAA in foods is not likely to represent a risk for mutagenicity.
