| Bioactivity | Glutaurine (Litoralon) TFA containing glutamine and taurine residues is an orally active hormone of the parathyroid. Glutaurine (Litoralon) TFA, as a hormone, is isolated from parathyroid gland oxyphil cells. Glutaurine (Litoralon) TFA can be used for the research of antiepileptic and anti-amnesia[1][2][3][4]. |
