Production of gamma-aminobutyric acid by
Background Gamma-aminobutyric acid is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in mammalian brains, and has several well-known physiological functions. Lactic acid bacteria possess special physiological activities and are generally regarded as safe. Therefore,

Overproduction of gamma-aminobutyric acid and increased antioxidant capacity by Lactiplantibacillus pentosus TEJ4 through optimization by response surface methodology [PDF]
Lactic Acid bacteria (LAB) are the main producers of bioactive compounds (peptides, exopolysaccharides, antioxidant compounds, gamma-aminobutyric acid-GABA, etc.).

GABA increases electrical excitability in a subset of human unmyelinated peripheral axons [PDF]
A proportion of small diameter primary sensory neurones innervating human skin are chemosensitive. They respond in a receptor dependent manner to chemical mediators of inflammation as well as naturally occurring algogens, thermogens and pruritogens.

GABA transaminase deficiency. Case report and literature review
GABA transaminase deficiency should be considered in the differential diagnosis of early onset epileptic encephalopathies. This case was diagnosed post‐mortem, but increased vigilance to this will allow for earlier diagnoses in other infants and families.

Sleep deprivation: a risk for epileptic seizures [PDF]
There is a well-documented correlation between epilepsy and sleep deprivation. For decades, preclinical and clinical studies have shown that sleep deprivation can lead to an increased risk of epileptic seizures.

Current Perspective on the Location and Function of Gamma- Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and its Metabolic Partners in the Kidney. [PDF]
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter located in the mammalian central nervous system, which binds to GABAA and GABAB receptors to mediate its neurological effects.

Anterior cingulate gamma‐aminobutyric acid concentrations and electroconvulsive therapy
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 ...

Evidence for a GABAergic system in rodent and human testis: Local GABA production and GABA receptors [PDF]
The major neurotransmitter of the central nervous system, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), exerts its actions through GABA(A), GABA(B) and GABA(C) receptors.
