Anterior cingulate gamma‐aminobutyric acid concentrations and electroconvulsive therapy

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Objective The anticonvulsant hypothesis posits that ECT’s mechanism of action is related to enhancement of endogenous anticonvulsant brain mechanisms. Results of prior studies investigating the role of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma‐aminobutyric ...

Temperature dependence of the microwave dielectric properties of $$\gamma$$ γ -aminobutyric acid

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The GABA molecule is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. Through binding to post-synaptic neurons, GABA reduces the neuronal excitability by hyperpolarization.

Calcium Imaging Reveals Coordinated Simple Spike Pauses in Populations of Cerebellar Purkinje Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
The brain’s control of movement is thought to involve coordinated activity between cerebellar Purkinje cells. The results reported here demonstrate that somatic Ca2+ imaging is a faithful reporter of Na+-dependent “simple spike” pauses and enables us to ...
