Interaction of hypothalamic GABA\u3csub\u3eA\u3c/sub\u3e and excitatory amino acid receptors controlling heart rate in rats [PDF]
, 1991 We have previously shown that microinjection of drugs that impair gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated synaptic inhibition into the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) of rats generates cardiovascular and behavioral changes that mimic the response to ...

Fast detection of extrasynaptic GABA with a whole-cell sniffer
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014 Gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory transmitter of the brain. It operates by binding to specific receptors located both inside and outside synapses.

Nature's Brewery to Bedtime: The Role of Hops in GABAA Receptor Modulation and Sleep Promotion [PDF]
Doctoral Dissertation University of Turku. ISBN: 978-951-29-9577-6
(2023)Insomnia often requires pharmacological interventions, with benzodiazepines and Z-drugs enhancing GABA's inhibitory effects by stabilizing GABAA receptor chloride ion channels. Prolonged use, however, raises dependency and cognitive concerns. Humulus lupulus (hops) is gaining attention as a natural relaxant and sleep aid, potentially modulating GABAA ...

New fixed point results on $G$-metric spaces [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 In this note, we discuss some fixed point theorems for contractive self mappings defined on a $G$-metric spaces. More precisely, we give fised point theorems for mappings with a contractive iterate at a point.

Clinically applicable GABA receptor positive allosteric modulators promote ß-cell replication. [PDF]
, 2017 A key goal of diabetes research is to develop treatments to safely promote human ß-cell replication. It has recently become appreciated that activation of γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABA-Rs) on ß-cells can promote their survival and replication.

Mechanism and Prevention of Hyperbaric Oxygen Convulsions [PDF]
arXivHyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) proves vital in saving lives by elevating the partial pressure of oxygen (pO2). However, HBOT may also have toxic effects, including lung and retinal damage (peripheral HBOT toxicity), muscle spasms and violent myoclonic convulsions (CNS HBOT toxicity), which may even lead to death if left untreated.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Analysis of gamma-amino butyric acid in the germinated brown rice by pre-column derivatization with 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 This paper reports the analytical method for gamma-amino butyric acid in the germinated brown rice by liquid chromatography. GABA was derivatized by pre-column derivatization with 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene. To separate GABA in the germinated brown rice extracts containing various amino acids, we reviewed the influence of the kind of separation columns ...

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Status epilepticus (SE) is a condition of neurological emergency, which precipitates various functional and morphological changes in the brain. Due to the risk of drug resistance associated with SE, this study aimed to evaluate a multitargeted approach to treat SE by combining clinically used antiseizure drugs. Methods In this study,

Efficacy of phenobarbital is maintained after exposure to mild‐to‐moderate seizures in neonates
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract To study the relationship between the delay in treatment and the efficacy of phenobarbital in neonates, we re‐analyzed data from the NEOLEV2 study. Continuous video EEG (cEEG) from patients treated with phenobarbital was reviewed by neurophysiologists who marked each seizure.
