Effects of gamma-aminobutyric acid on secretagogue-induced exocrine secretion of isolated, perfused rat pancreas.
Because GABA and its related enzymes have been determined in beta-cells of pancreas islets, effects of GABA on pancreatic exocrine secretion were investigated in the isolated, perfused rat pancreas. GABA, given intra-arterially at concentrations of 3, 10, 30, and 100 microM, did not exert any influence on spontaneous or secretin (12 pM)-induced pancreatic exocrine secretion. However, GABA furth...
متن کاملGamma-aminobutyric Acid Metabolism in Rats following Microwave Exposure
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) metabolism was studied in rats chronically exposed to 2.86 GHz microwaves at an incident power level of 10 mW/cm or acutely exposed to incident power levels of 40 or 80 mW/cm. No changes occurred in whole brain GABA levels or L-glutamic decarboxylase activity following these exposures. These results suggest that an altered GABA metabolism is not involved in report...
متن کاملP146: Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) and its Alterations in Stress
Gamma aminobutyrate (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid that is thought to play an important role in the modulation of the central response to stress. Mechanisms by which GABA may facilitate these responses to stress are metabolic and/or mechanical disruptions. Environmental stresses increase GABA accumulation through cytosolic acidification, induce an acidic pH-dependent activation of glutamate...
متن کاملgamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and sepsis-related encephalopathy.
In order to determine whether disturbances in GABA homeostasis might play a role in the pathogenesis of sepsis-related encephalopathy, serum and brain tissue GABA concentrations from six areas of the brain (cortex, diencephalon, striatum, hippocampus, midbrain, and pons-medulla) were determined in a rat model of bacterial sepsis (cecal ligation and perforation). The results were compared to tho...
متن کاملGamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) Monograpy
Introduction Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a major neuro transmitter widely distributed throughout the central nervous system (CNS). Because too much excitation can lead to irritability, restlessness, insomnia, seizures, and movement disorders, it must be balanced with inhibition. GABA – the most important inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain – provides this inhibition, acting like a “b...
