The Characteristics of Biophotonic Activity Induced by Aspartate May Be Related to the Evolution of Species

" In this study, we found that aspartate can significantly induce biophotonic activity in mouse brain slices, and the intensity and effect characteristics of aspartate are consistent with those of glutamate as reported previously. ... However, some differences should be emphasized ... It has been demonstrated that the content of aspartate is more abundant in the brain of lower organisms as compared to that of glutamate ... it is understandable that lower organisms may need more rapid and efficient information processing for brain functions (fast response) in the process of adaptation to the environment, while the brain activity in higher organisms, such as human beings, may need more sustained information processing and low energy consumption (persistent response)." {Credits 1}
