D-cycloserine, a partial agonist at the NMDA receptor, is used as an experimental model to investigate the effects of drugs on the nervous system. It is used in studies about learning, memory, and psychological conditions like PTSD and anxiety.
When D-cycloserine combined with other pharmacological agents, has been shown to enhance cognitive functions and to act as a matrix effect inhibitor in analytical methods.
D-cycloserine also shows activity against some bacterial infections by inhibiting the cell wall synthesis.
