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.

Allosteric modulation of retinal GABA receptors by ascorbic acid [PDF]
, 2011 Ionotropic GABA receptors (GABAA and GABAC) belong to the Cys-loop receptor family of ligand-gated ion channels. GABAC receptors are highly expressed in the retina, mainly localized at the axon terminals of bipolar cells.

Stress and GABAAreceptors [PDF]
Journal of Neurochemistry, 2010 J. Neurochem.(2010)112, 1115–1130.AbstractGABAAreceptors are sensitive to subtle changes in the environment in both early‐life and adulthood. These neurochemical responses to stress in adulthood are sex‐dependent. Acute stress induces rapid changes in GABAAreceptors in experimental animals, with the direction of the changes varying according to the sex

International Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2021 Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an endocrine disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, polyuria, polydipsia, and glucosuria. γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS) of humans and other mammals.

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 ...

Insights into GABA receptor signalling in TM3 Leydig cells [PDF]
, 2005 gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an emerging signalling molecule in endocrine organs, since it is produced by endocrine cells and acts via GABA(A) receptors in a paracrine/autocrine fashion.

Molecular determinants involved in the allosteric control of agonist affinity in the GABAB receptor by the GABAB2 subunit [PDF]
The Journal of Biological Chemistry 279, 16 (2004) 15824-30, 2008 The gamma-aminobutyric acid type B (GABAB) receptor is an allosteric complex made of two subunits, GABAB1 (GB1) and GABAB2 (GB2). Both subunits are composed of an extracellular Venus flytrap domain (VFT) and a heptahelical domain (HD). GB1 binds GABA, and GB2 plays a major role in G-protein activation as well as in the high agonist affinity state of ...

Effects of ethylenediamine – a putative GABA-releasing agent – on rat hippocampal slices and neocortical activity in vivo [PDF]
, 2010 The simple diamine diaminoethane (ethylenediamine, EDA) has been shown to activate GABA receptors in the central and peripheral nervous systems, partly by a direct action and partly by releasing endogenous GABA.
