  Glutamate is a central junction for interchange of amino nitrogen, glutamate facilitates both amino acid synthesis and degradation.
  In the liver, glutamate is the terminus for release of ammonia from amino acids, and the intrahepatic concentration of glutamate modulates the rate of ammonia detoxification into urea.
  In pancreatic beta-cells, oxidation of glutamate mediates amino acid-stimulated insulin secretion.
  In the central nervous system, glutamate serves as an excitatory (...)

  Definition: Retinoic acid is the oxidized form of Vitamin A.
  Functions
  Embryology
  Retinoic acid via the retinoic acid receptor influences the process of cell differentiation, hence, the growth and development of embryos.
  Retinoic acid functions in determining position along embryonic anterior/posterior axis in chordates. It acts through Hox genes, which ultimately controls anterior/posterior patterning in early developmental stages.
  Retinoic acid acts by binding to heterodimers of the (...)
