Identification of Additional Cases of Severe Neonatal GABA-Transaminase Deficiency. [PDF]
ABSTRACT GABA‐transaminase (GABA‐T) deficiency is a rare disorder of GABA metabolism characterized by neonatal encephalopathy, epilepsy, hypotonia and intellectual disability. It is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the ABAT gene. We report a case of a newborn female born to a G10P5 mother, with abnormal fetal movements and polyhydramnios in ...

Safety and Efficacy of Remimazolam for General Anesthesia in Elderly Patients Undergoing Transurethral Surgery. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Remimazolam, a novel benzodiazepine, acts on the GABA receptor and is widely used for procedural sedation. To date, there are relatively few articles comparing remimazolam to propofol for general anesthesia in elderly urology patients.

Effect of flumazenil on recovery from anesthesia and the bispectral index after sevoflurane/fentanyl general anesthesia in unpremedicated patients [PDF]
BackgroundBenzodiazepines have a hypnotic/sedative effect through the inhibitory action of γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor. Flumazenil antagonizes these effects via competitive inhibition, so it has been used to reverse the effect of benzodiazepines.

Flumazenil-Insensitive Benzodiazepine Effects in Recombinant αβ and Neuronal GABAA Receptors
Gamma-aminobutyric acid, type A (GABAA) receptors are complex heterogeneous pentamers with various drug binding sites. Several lines of evidence suggest that benzodiazepines modulate certain GABAA receptors in a flumazenil-insensitive manner, possibly ...
