| Description | γ-Glu-Ala is an endogenous kokumi dipeptide composed of L-glutamic acid (Item No. 30377) and L-alanine (Item No. 29757) that has been found in P. roqueforti.1 It has also been found in several ripened cheeses, including Gouda, goat, and Milner cheeses. γ-Glu-Ala is a positive allosteric modulator of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR; EC50 = 4.8 µM in CaSR-expressing HEK293 cells).2 It induces glutathionuria in mice when administered at a dose of 4 mmol/kg.3 Plasma levels of γ-Glu-Ala are increased in malnourished neonatal mice.4 Increased serum levels of γ-Glu-Ala are positively associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease.5WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use. | | References | [1] SIMONE TOELSTEDE Thomas H.
