| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Spermine is an endogenous polyamine synthesized from the reaction of spermidine (Item No. 14918) with decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine in the presence of the enzyme spermine synthase and is required for eukaryotic cell growth and protein synthesis.1,2 Intracellular spermine blocks inward rectifying K+ channels, whereas extracellular spermine acts as a mixed NMDA glutamate receptor agonist/antagonist at the polyamine site.3 Spermine has neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects and functions as a free radical scavenger to prevent DNA damage by reactive oxygen species.4 | [Chemical Properties]
White to slightly off-white powder crysta | [Uses]
Binds to the polyamine modulatory site of NMDA Spermine is essential for both normal and neoplastic tissue growth. It is involved in the modulation of calcium-dependent immune processes. It plays an important role in cellular proliferation and differentiation as well as inhibits neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). | [Uses]

immune modulator | [Definition]
ChEBI: A polyazaalkane that is tetradecane in which the carbons at positions 1, 5, 10 and 14 are replaced by nitrogens. Spermine has broad actions on cellular metabolism. | [General Description]
Spermine?is a polyamine, which functions as a free radical scavenger. It modulates gene expression, chromatin stabilization and prevents DNA damage. Spermine inhibits endonuclease-mediated DNA fragmentation. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Mixed NMDA glutamate receptor agonist/antagonist at the polyamine site. Neuroprotective effects have been observed at high concentrations (1 mM), while neurotoxicity is observed at lower concentrations. It enhances agonist effectiveness at the strychnine-insensitive glycine site. Plays a role in cellular proliferation and differentiation; inhibits neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). | [storage]
