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 ...

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.

Current Perspective on the Location and Function of Gamma- Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and its Metabolic Partners in the Kidney. [PDF]
, 2014 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.

GABA potency at GABAA receptors found in synaptic and extrasynaptic zones
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2012 The potency of GABA is vitally important for its primary role in activating GABAA receptors and acting as an inhibitory neurotransmitter. Although numerous laboratories have presented information, directly or indirectly, on GABA potency, it is often ...

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.
