1. The Role of D-Serine and D-Aspartate in the Pathogenesis and Therapy of Treatment-Resistant Schizophrenia
Regina F Nasyrova, Aiperi K Khasanova, Kuanysh S Altynbekov, Azat R Asadullin, Ekaterina A Markina, Arseny J Gayduk, German A Shipulin, Marina M Petrova, Natalia A Shnayder Nutrients. 2022 Dec 2;14(23):5142. doi: 10.3390/nu14235142.
Schizophrenia (Sch) is a severe and widespread mental disorder. Antipsychotics (APs) of the first and new generations as the first-line treatment of Sch are not effective in about a third of cases and are also unable to treat negative symptoms and cognitive deficits of schizophrenics. This explains the search for new therapeutic strategies for a disease-modifying therapy for treatment-resistant Sch (TRS). Biological compounds are of great interest to researchers and clinicians, among which D-Serine (D-Ser) and D-Aspartate (D-Asp) are among the promising ones. The Sch glutamate theory suggests that neurotransmission dysfunction caused by glutamate N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) may represent a primary deficiency in this mental disorder and play an important role in the development of TRS. D-Ser and D-Asp are direct NMDAR agonists and may be involved in modulating the functional activity of dopaminergic neurons. This narrative review demonstrates both the biological role of D-Ser and D-Asp in the normal functioning of the central nervous system (CNS) and in the pathogenesis of Sch and TRS. Particular attention is paid to D-Ser and D-Asp as promising components of a nutritive disease-modifying therapy for TRS.
2. D-Aspartate consumption selectively promotes intermediate-term spatial memory and the expression of hippocampal NMDA receptor subunits

D-Aspartate (D-Asp) and D-serine (D-Ser) have been proposed to promote early-phase LTP in vitro and to enhance spatial memory in vivo. Here, we investigated the behavioural effects of chronic consumption of D-Asp and D-Ser on spatial learning of mice together with the expression of NMDA receptors. We also studied the alterations of neurogenesis by morphometric analysis of bromo-deoxyuridine incorporating and doublecortin expressing cells in the hippocampus. Our results specify a time period (3-4 h post-training), within which the animals exposed to D-Asp (but not D-Ser) show a more stable memory during retrieval. The cognitive improvement is due to elimination of transient bouts of destabilization and reconsolidation of memory, rather than to enhanced acquisition. D-Asp also protracted reversal learning probably due to reduced plasticity. Expression of GluN1 and GluN2A subunits was elevated in the hippocampus of D-Asp (but not D-Ser) treated mice. D-Asp or D-Ser did not alter the proliferation of neuronal progenitor cells in the hippocampus. The observed learning-related changes evoked by D-Asp are unlikely to be due to enhanced proliferation and recruitment of new neurones. Rather, they are likely associated with an upregulation of NMDA receptors, as well as a reorganization of receptor subunit assemblies in existing hippocampal/dentate neurons.
3. d-aspartate and N-methyl-d-aspartate promote proliferative activity in mouse spermatocyte GC-2 cells
Sara Falvo, Alessandra Santillo, Gabriella Chieffi Baccari, Federica Cioffi, Maria Maddalena Di Fiore Reprod Biol. 2022 Mar;22(1):100601. doi: 10.1016/j.repbio.2021.100601. Epub 2022 Jan 13.
D-Aspartate (D-Asp) and its methylated form N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) promote spermatogenesis by stimulating the biosynthesis of sex steroid hormones. d-Asp also induces spermatogonia proliferation directly by activating the ERK/Aurora B pathway. In the present study, a mouse spermatocyte-derived cell line (GC-2) which represents a stage between preleptotene spermatocyte and round spermatids was exposed to 200 μM d-Asp or 50 μM NMDA for 30 min, 2 h, and 4 h to explore the influence of these amino acids on cell proliferation and mitochondrial activities occurring during this process. By Western blotting analyses, the expressions of AMPAR (GluA1-GluA2/3 subunits), cell proliferation as well as mitochondria functionality markers were determined at different incubation times. The results revealed that d-Asp or NMDA stimulate proliferation and meiosis in the GC-2 cells via the AMPAR/ERK/Akt pathway, which led to increased levels of the PCNA, p-H3, and SYCP3 proteins. The effects of d-Asp and NMDA on the mitochondrial functionality of the GC-2 cells strongly suggested an active role of these amino acids in germ cell maturation. In both d-Asp- and NMDA-treated GC-2 cells mitochondrial biogenesis as well as mitochondrial fusion are increased while mitochondria fission is inhibited. Finally, the findings showed that NMDA significantly increased the expressions of the CII, CIII, CIV, and CV complexes of oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS), whereas d-Asp induced a significant increase in the expressions only of the CIV and CV complexes. The present study provides novel insights into the mechanisms underlying the role of d-Asp and NMDA in promoting spermatogenesis.
