4.1 Therapeutic Uses

AMINOACETIC ACID HAS BEEN OCCASIONALLY USED IN THERAPY OF MYASTHENIA GRAVIS BUT MOST INVESTIGATORS DOUBT THAT THE CMPD HAS ANY VALUE IN THIS DISORDER. ... /IT/ IS ALSO USED IN...ANTACID PREPN, SOMETIMES AS A COMPLEX SALT. HOWEVER.../IT HAS/ LIMITED BUFFERING CAPACITY...

AMINOACETIC ACID IS USED IN...1.1% SOLN AS AN IRRIGATING FLUID IN TRANSURETHRAL RESECTION OF THE PROSTATE. ALTHOUGH A 2.1% SOLN...IS ISOTONIC, IT HAS BEEN FOUND THAT A 1.1% SOLN IS NONHEMOLYTIC.

4.2 Drug Indication

Supplemental glycine may have antispastic activity. Very early findings suggest it may also have antipsychotic activity as well as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Helps trigger the release of oxygen to the energy requiring cell-making process; Important in the manufacturing of hormones responsible for a strong immune system.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Glycine Agents

Substances used for their pharmacological actions on glycinergic systems. Glycinergic agents include agonists, antagonists, degradation or uptake inhibitors, depleters, precursors, and modulators of receptor function. (See all compounds classified as Glycine Agents.)

B - Blood and blood forming organs

B05 - Blood substitutes and perfusion solutions

B05C - Irrigating solutions

B05CX - Other irrigating solutions

B05CX03 - Glycine


5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Absorbed from the small intestine via an active transport mechanism.

Hepatic


5.6 Mechanism of Action

In the CNS, there exist strychnine-sensitive glycine binding sites as well as strychnine-insensitive glycine binding sites. The strychnine-insensitive glycine-binding site is located on the NMDA receptor complex. The strychnine-sensitive glycine receptor complex is comprised of a chloride channel and is a member of the ligand-gated ion channel superfamily. The putative antispastic activity of supplemental glycine could be mediated by glycine's binding to strychnine-sensitive binding sites in the spinal cord. This would result in increased chloride conductance and consequent enhancement of inhibitory neurotransmission. The ability of glycine to potentiate NMDA receptor-mediated neurotransmission raised the possibility of its use in the management of neuroleptic-resistant negative symptoms in schizophrenia.
Animal studies indicate that supplemental glycine protects against endotoxin-induced lethality, hypoxia-reperfusion injury after liver transplantation, and D-galactosamine-mediated liver injury. Neutrophils are thought to participate in these pathologic processes via invasion of tissue and releasing such reactive oxygen species as superoxide. In vitro studies have shown that neutrophils contain a glycine-gated chloride channel that can attenuate increases in intracellular calcium and diminsh neutrophil oxidant production. This research is ealy-stage, but suggests that supplementary glycine may turn out to be useful in processes where neutrophil infiltration contributes to toxicity, such as ARDS.


HYPERPOLARIZATION OF MOTONEURONS PRODUCED BY IONTOPHORETIC APPLICATION OF GLYCINE IS RELATIVELY TRANSIENT BUT APPROACHES THE EQUILIBRIUM POTENTIAL FOR THE INDIRECTLY ACTIVATED INHIBITORY POSTSYNAPTIC POTENTIAL...TESTS WITH GABA... INDICATE SIMILAR ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS & SIMILAR INCR IN CL- CONDUCTANCE.

Gilman, A. G., L. S. Goodman, and A. Gilman. (eds.). Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. 6th ed. New York: Macmillan Publishing Co., Inc. 1980., p. 247


MAJOR EVIDENCE THAT FAVORS GLYCINE AS MEDIATOR OF INTRASPINAL POSTSYNAPTIC INHIBITION IS THE SELECTIVE ANTAGONISM OF ITS EFFECTS BY STRYCHNINE. ... GLYCINE ALSO APPEARS TO BE MOST LIKELY TRANSMITTER FOR INHIBITORY INTERNEURONS IN RETICULAR FORMATION BUT NOT IN CUNEATE NUCLEUS.
