Research Abstract |
EAAC1 plays an important role in neuronal GSH synthesis. GTRAP3-18 is an EAAC1-binding protein to inhibit the function in neurons. However, it is still elusive that GTRAP3-18 negatively regulates neuronal GSH synthesis in vivo. In this study, we showed that intraventricular injection of GTRAP3-18 siRNA decreased GSHcontent in the hippocampus, while intraventricular injection of methyl β-cyclodextrin decreased GSH content with increased GTRAP3-18 expression in the hippocampus. These results suggest that GTRAP3-18 negatively regulates neuronal GSH synthesis in the hippocampus.
