Regulation of Arabidopsis 14-3-3 gene expression by GABA. [PDF]
, 2006 The function in plants of the non-protein amino acid, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is poorly understood. In this study, we show that GABA down-regulates the expression of a large sub-set of 14-3-3 gene family members in Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings ...

Neuregulin and dopamine D4 receptors contribute independently to depotentiation of Schaffer collateral LTP by temperoammonic path stimulation [PDF]
, 2017 Prior studies have found that dopamine (DA), acting at D4 receptors, and neuregulin (NRG), likely acting at ErbB4 receptors, are involved in a form of depotentiation of long-term potentiation (LTP) at Schaffer collateral (SC) synapses in the hippocampus.

Neurosteroids and GABA-A Receptor Function [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2011 Neurosteroids represent a class of endogenous steroids that are synthesized in the brain, the adrenals, and the gonads and have potent and selective effects on the GABAA-receptor. 3α-hydroxy A-ring reduced metabolites of progesterone, deoxycorticosterone, and testosterone are positive modulators of GABA(A)-receptor in a non-genomic manner ...

Control of cortical neuronal migration by glutamate and GABA
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015 Neuronal migration in the cortex is controlled by the paracrine action of the classical neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA. Glutamate controls radial migration of pyramidal neurons by acting primarily on NMDA receptors and regulates tangential ...

Understanding the function of the GABAergic system and its potential role in rheumatoid arthritis
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a highly disabling chronic autoimmune disease. Multiple factors contribute to the complex pathological process of RA, in which an abnormal autoimmune response, high survival of inflammatory cells, and excessive release of ...

Different subtypes of GABA-A receptors are expressed in human, mouse and rat T lymphocytes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the most prominent neuroinhibitory transmitter in the brain, where it activates neuronal GABA-A receptors (GABA-A channels) located at synapses and outside of synapses.

Midazolam inhibits hippocampal long-term potentiation and learning through dual central and peripheral benzodiazepine receptor activation and neurosteroidogenesis [PDF]
, 2010 Benzodiazepines (BDZs) enhance GABA(A) receptor inhibition by direct actions on central BDZ receptors (CBRs). Although some BDZs also bind mitochondrial receptors [translocator protein (18 kDa) (TSPO)] and promote the synthesis of GABA-enhancing ...

GABA_{B} Receptors Regulate Chick Retinal Calcium Waves [PDF]
, 2001 Correlated spiking activity and associated Ca²⁺ waves in the developing retina are important in determining the connectivity of the visual system. Here, we show that GABA, via GABA_{B} receptors, regulates the temporal characteristics of Ca²⁺ waves ...

Loop G in the GABAA receptor α1 subunit influences gating efficacy [PDF]
, 2017 KEY POINTS: The functional importance of residues in loop G of the GABA(A) receptor has not been investigated. D43 and T47 in the α1 subunit are of particular significance as their structural modification inhibits activation by GABA.
