Abstract
Modulation of glycine concentrations in the brain influences learning and memory functions in experimental animals. We administered milacemide, a glycine prodrug, or placebo to young and older healthy adults, who performed a word-retrieval task. Milacemide administration increased the number of words retrieved and decreased the latency with which these words were retrieved for both young and older adults.
