Biochem/physiol Actions
N-Methyl amino acids play an important role in investigations on prevention or therapy of Alzheimer′s disease, neurofibrillary tangles or amyloid plaque are physiological characteristics of this disease and ?-amyloid(40) fibrillogenesis and disassembly of ?-amyloid(40) fibrils is inhibited by short ?-amyloid congeners containing N-methyl amino acids at alternate residue. N-Methyl-L-serine stimulates hyaluronan production in human skin fibroblasts.
N-Methyl-L-serine has been found to stimulate production of high molecular mass hyaluronan in human fibroblasts. This effect was specific to methylated L-serine and not observed with other methylated amino acids.
