Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Variants in SLC6A1, encoding the GABA transporter 1 (GAT‐1), cause epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental delay via loss of GABA uptake, impaired trafficking, and ER retention. We previously found that 4‐Phenylbutyrate (PBA), an FDA‐approved drug, restores GABA uptake and reduces seizures in SLC6A1‐related disorders ...

A Gut Feeling about GABA: Focus on GABAB receptors
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2010 Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the body and hence GABA-mediated neurotransmission regulates many physiological functions, including those in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

Determining the Location of GABA Receptor mRNA Transcripts in \u3cem\u3eDanio rerio\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
, 2018 -aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter that has been shown to be present in the inner ear. GABA binds to two classes of GABA receptors (GABARs): GABAARs are pentameric ion channels (isoforms include: 1-6, β 1-3, 1-3, 1-3, , , and ); GABABRs ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study shows that stem‐like cells isolated from breast cancer brain metastases drive the spread and growth of tumors in the brain. Among them, a highly adhesive subgroup initiates metastasis and resists many drugs. By closely reflecting patient tumors, these models help identify new targets and improve the development of effective treatments ...

Regulation of GABAA Receptors Induced by the Activation of L-Type Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels
Membranes, 2021 GABAA receptors are pentameric ion channels that mediate most synaptic and tonic extrasynaptic inhibitory transmissions in the central nervous system.

Selective loss of GABAB receptors in orexin/hypocretin-producing neurons results in disrupted sleep/wakefulness architecture [PDF]
, 2007 We generated mice with a selective loss of GABAB receptors in orexin neurons. Orexin neurons in these GABAB1<sup>-/-(orexin)</sup> mice showed reduced responsiveness to GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor agonists due to a ...

Bottom-Up versus Top-Down Induction of Sleep by Zolpidem Acting on Histaminergic and Neocortex Neurons [PDF]
, 2016 Zolpidem, a GABAA receptor-positive modulator, is the gold-standard drug for treating insomnia. Zolpidem prolongs IPSCs to decrease sleep latency and increase sleep time, effects that depend on α2 and/or α3 subunit-containing receptors.

A Central Somatic Transmission Mediates Proprioceptive Facilitation of Muscle Pain
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Zhang et al. uncover a novel central mechanism for persistent muscle pain, in which TRPA1 sensitization in MeV proprioceptive neurons enhances somatic secretion. This, in turn, disinhibits descending pain control from neighboring noradrenergic locus coeruleus neurons via local GABAergic circuits, thereby promoting inflammatory muscle pain.

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2008 Glycine and GABA mediate inhibitory neurotransmission in the spinal cord and central nervous system. The general concept of neurotransmission is now challenged by the contribution of both phasic activation of postsynaptic glycine and GABAA receptors ...
