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 ...

Stimulation of TM3 Leydig cell proliferation via GABAA receptors: A new role for testicular GABA
Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2004 The neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and subtypes of GABA receptors were recently identified in adult testes. Since adult Leydig cells possess both the GABA biosynthetic enzyme glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), as well as GABAA and GABAB ...

Negative modulation of the GABAAρ1 receptor function by l-cysteine [PDF]
, 2017 l-Cysteine is an endogenous sulfur-containing amino acid with multiple and varied roles in the central nervous system, including neuroprotection and the maintenance of the redox balance.

Emerging neurotrophic role of GABAB receptors in neuronal circuit development [PDF]
, 2013 The proper development of highly organized structures in the central nervous system is a complex process during which key events – neurogenesis, migration, growth, differentiation, and synaptogenesis – have to take place in an appropriate manner to ...

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010 We investigated the inhibitory role of γ-aminobutyric acid A (GABA A ) receptors on amylase release and the evidence for functional coupling with central-type benzodiazepine receptors in rat parotid acinar cells.

Role of GABA and its receptors in anti-adipogenesis in cultured adipocytes [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2020 Health benefits of GABA and GABA-enriched foods via anti-obesity activity have been demonstrated in animals. However, the functional roles of GABA especially as non-neurotransmitter in adipocytes have not been thoroughly clarified.

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 ...

Activation of the Rat α1β2ε GABAA Receptor by Orthosteric and Allosteric Agonists
Biomolecules, 2022 GABAA receptors are a major contributor to fast inhibitory neurotransmission in the brain. The receptors are activated upon binding the transmitter GABA or allosteric agonists including a number of GABAergic anesthetics and neurosteroids.
