General description
Oxaloacetic acid is a dicarboxylic acid that is present in every cell in the body. It is a metabolic intermediate of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and gluconeogenesis.
Application
Oxaloacetic acid has been used to evaluate its effect on neuromuscular function and lifespan in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) model superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) G93A mice. It has also been used as a supplement in Dulbecco′s modified Eagle′s medium (DMEM) to culture chicken fibroblast (DF-1) cells and chemically immortalized leghorn male hepatoma (LMH) cells for functional validation experiments.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Oxaloacetic acid plays a vital role in central metabolism. It inhibits succinate dehydrogenase and is a key regulator of mitochondrial metabolism.

We recently reported a previously unrecognized mitochondrial respiratory phenomenon. When [ADP] was held constant ("clamped") at sequentially increasing concentrations in succinate-energized muscle mitochondria in the absence of rotenone (commonly used to block complex I), we observed a biphasic, increasing then

Gallid alpha-herpesvirus 1, also known as avian infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV), continues to cause huge economic losses to the poultry industry worldwide. Similar to that of other herpesvirus-encoded proteins, the expression of viral genes encoded by ILTV is regulated by

Decreasing blood glutamate concentrations after traumatic brain injury accelerates brain-to-blood glutamate efflux, leading to improved neurologic outcomes. The authors hypothesize that treatment with blood glutamate scavengers should reduce neuronal cell loss, whereas administration of glutamate should worsen outcomes. The authors
