Glycine is a vital amino acid required for the synthesis of proteins and production of energy within the body. Its capabilities to enhance sleep, alleviate inflammation and improve cognitive ...

A genetic mutation found in two human patients with schizophrenia also increased schizophrenia-related behaviors in mice with ...

The mutation led to higher levels of glycine decarboxylase (GLDC), an enzyme that degrades glycine, reducing NMDA receptor activation. Mice with extra copies of the GLDC gene exhibited ...
