Astrocyte-Ablation of Mtnr1b Increases Anxiety-Like Behavior in Adult Male Mice
Background: Astrocytes are essential for synaptic transmission, and their dysfunction can result in neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety and depression.

Background: The gamma-aminobutyric acid GABA receptors are considered the main inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in mammalian brain and they have been proved to be existing in non-neuronal cells. Aim: Lorazepam which is one of the benzodiazepines,

Effects of ethylenediamine – a putative GABA-releasing agent – on rat hippocampal slices and neocortical activity in vivo [PDF]
The simple diamine diaminoethane (ethylenediamine, EDA) has been shown to activate GABA receptors in the central and peripheral nervous systems, partly by a direct action and partly by releasing endogenous GABA.

Role of nitric oxide synthase on brain GABA transaminase activity and GABA levels
In an attempt to clarify the controversial role of nitric oxide (NO) in seizures, the effects of NO on brain GABA transaminase (GABA-T) activity and GABA levels were investigated.

GABAergic inhibition controls neural gain in inferior colliculus neurons sensitive to interaural time differences [PDF]
We investigated the role of GABAergic inhibition on the responses of inferior colliculus (IC) neurons sensitive to interaural time differences (ITDs) in anesthetized guinea pigs.

GABA Generates Excitement [PDF]
In the CNS, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) acts as an inhibitory transmitter via ligand-gated GABA(A) receptor channels and G protein-coupled GABA(B) receptors. Both of these receptor types mediate inhibitory postsynaptic transmission throughout the nervous system. For GABA(A) receptors, this inhibitory action is associated with a hyperpolarization due

Serotonin drives a novel GABAergic synaptic current recorded in rat cerebellar purkinje cells: a lugaro cell to purkinje cell synapse [PDF]
We recorded a novel fast GABAergic synaptic current in cerebellar Purkinje cells in rat brain slices using patch-clamp techniques. Because of a relatively low sensitivity to bicuculline, these currents can be recorded under conditions in which basket and

NKCC1: A key regulator of glioblastoma progression
Glioblastoma (GBM) progression is driven by disrupted chloride cotransporter homeostasis. NKCC1 is highly expressed in stem‐like, astrocytic, and progenitor cells, correlating with earlier recurrence, while overall survival remains unaffected. NKCC1 serves as a prognostic marker and potential therapeutic target, linking chloride transporter imbalance ...

Paradoxical network excitation by glutamate release from VGluT3+ GABAergic interneurons
In violation of Dale’s principle several neuronal subtypes utilize more than one classical neurotransmitter. Molecular identification of vesicular glutamate transporter three and cholecystokinin expressing cortical interneurons (CCK+VGluT3+INTs) has ...
