Abstract: d‐ and l‐cycloserine were shown to be irreversible inhibitors of the first enzyme of the sphingolipid pathway, 3‐ketodihydrosphingosine synthetase, in a study using bacterial and brain microsomal enzymes, l‐Cycloserine was shown to be 100 times more inhibitory than the d‐isomer for the brain microsomal enzyme in vitro. In vivo, l‐cycloserine caused a 70% inhibition of brain microsomal enzyme. Following one injection, enzyme activity recovered 80% of normal after 16 hours. Daily dosages of l‐cycloserine on a regimen of intraper‐itoneal injection for 7 days caused a significant reduction in total brain ganglioside and cerebroside plus sulfatide levels.
