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.

GABA Receptors: Pharmacological Potential and Pitfalls.
Current pharmaceutical design, 2015 Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system, plays a key role in the regulation of neuronal transmission throughout the brain, affecting numerous physiological and psychological processes.

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 ...

Children, 2022 Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) is well known to help elevate pancreatic β cell vitality and insulin levels in blood. GABA works via a coupling with GABA receptors; thus, the concentration of GABAA receptors on the plasma membrane of β cells appears to ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...
