Dimethyl DL-glutamate is a cell-permeable form of glutamate.
Extracellular glutamic acid is an excitatory neurotransmitter, while intracellular glutamic acid is an amino acid that serves various metabolic roles.
In vitro: Dimethyl DL-glutamate at 3.0-10.0 mM could enhance insulin release evoked by 6.0-8.3 mM D-glucose, 1.0-10.0 mM L-leucine, or 5.0-10.0 mM 2-amino-bicyclo(2,2,1)heptane-2-carboxylic acid, resulting in a shift to the left of the sigmoidal relationship between insulin output and D-glucose concentration. Moreover, dimethyl DL-glutamate unmasked the insulinotropic potential of glibenclamide in the absence of D-glucose. In islets exposed to L-leucine, the insulinotropic action of dimethyl DL-glutamate coincided with an early fall and later increase in 86Rb outflow. In addition, the overall gain in O2 uptake represented the balance between dimethyl DL-glutamate oxidation and its sparing action on the catabolism of endogenous fatty acids and exogenous D-glucose [1].
In vivo: Dimethyl DL-glutamate was intravenously administered as a primed constant infusion to adult rats that had been injected with streptozotocin during the neonatal period. Results showed that dimethyl DL-glutamate augmented plasma insulin concentration and potentiated and/or prolonged the insulinotropic action of GLP-1 injected intravenously at min 5 of the test [2].
Clinical trial: So far, no clinical study has been conducted.

General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |
