Descripción

General description

Domoic acid, a heterocyclic amino acid neurotoxin is synthesized by various marine algaes. It possess some structural similarity to kainic acid.

Application

Domoic acid has been used:

• as an excitatory neurotoxin to determine brain transcriptional response
• to study its cytotoxic, genotoxic and immunotoxic effects on the marine mussel M. edulis
• to study its neurobehavioral effects on mouse fetuses

Biochem/physiol Actions

Domoic acid is a potent agonist at receptors for excitatory amino acids glutamate and kainate. It has highest affinity for AMPA/kainate receptor of any kainate agonist. It can causes excessive excitation of neurons leading to depletion of energy stores.

Domoic acid serves as an antihelminthic. It is capable of binding and stimulating the kainic acid glutamate receptor in the central nervous system.

Potent glutamate receptor and kainate receptor agonist.
