Conditional gene deletion reveals functional redundancy of GABAB receptors in peripheral nociceptors
Molecular Pain, 2009 Background γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an important inhibitory neurotransmitter which mainly mediates its effects on neurons via ionotropic (GABAA) and metabotropic (GABAB) receptors.

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 ...

Characterization of GABA Receptors [PDF]
Current Protocols in Pharmacology, 1998 AbstractDescribed in this unit are ligand‐binding assays for GABAA, GABAB, and the homomeric ρ GABAA(formerly GABAC) receptor recognition sites in brain tissue. Although GABA binding sites are present in peripheral organs, most research is directed toward examining these receptors in the CNS.

Evidence for a GABAergic system in rodent and human testis: Local GABA production and GABA receptors [PDF]
, 2003 The major neurotransmitter of the central nervous system, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), exerts its actions through GABA(A), GABA(B) and GABA(C) receptors.

An autocrine role for pituitary GABA: Activation of GABA-B receptors and regulation of growth hormone levels [PDF]
, 2002 There is increasing evidence suggesting that the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a local factor involved in the regulation of endocrine organs.

Molecular pharmacology of an insect GABA receptor [PDF]
, 2010 Cys-loop receptors are ligand-gated ion channels that are involved in fast synaptic neurotransmission in the central and peripheral nervous system. The Cys-loop receptor RDL (‘resistant to dieldrin’) is a GABA-gated chloride channel from Drosophila ...

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001 The aim of the present study was to determine if phenobarbital affects the nociception threshold. Systemic (1-20 mg/kg) phenobarbital administration dose dependently induced hyperalgesia in the tail-flick, hot-plate and formalin tests in rats and in the ...

Effects of ethylenediamine – a putative GABA-releasing agent – on rat hippocampal slices and neocortical activity in vivo [PDF]
, 2010 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.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015 GABAA receptors mediate fast inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. Dysfunction of these receptors is associated with various psychiatric/neurological disorders and drugs targeting this receptor are widely used therapeutic agents.

Endoplasmic reticulum sorting and kinesin-1 command the targeting of axonal GABAB receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 In neuronal cells the intracellular trafficking machinery controls the availability of neurotransmitter receptors at the plasma membrane, which is a critical determinant of synaptic strength.
