Effect of y-Aminobutyric Acid Modulation on Neuronal Ischemia in Rabbits
Background and Purpose Antagonists of excitatory neurotransmitters are effective in limiting ischemic damage to the brain and spinal cord, but use in clinical stroke may be limited by side effects. Agonists of inhibitory neurotransmitters, such as •y-aminobutyric acid (GABA), may provide similar neuroprotection with less severe side effects. This study examines the effect of an agonist and anta...
متن کاملEffect of Curcumin on the Hypothalamus Levels of the Potent Inhibitory Neurotransmitter ,Gamma aminobutyric acid
Background: There are some reports in the literature showing that hypothalamus synthesizes and secretes amino acid neurotransmitters. According to several studies, elevated serum levels of gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA), a potent inhibitory neurotransmitter, have recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of neural diseases. The purpose of this research was to estimate the effects of curcumi...
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) 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...
متن کاملThe gamma-aminobutyric acidergic effects of valerian and valerenic acid on rat brainstem neuronal activity.
UNLABELLED Valerian is a medicinal herb that produces anxiolytic and sedative effects. It was suggested that valerian acts via gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)ergic mechanisms. Previous studies showed binding of valerian extract to GABA receptors, but the functional effect of the binding has not been demonstrated. In this study we evaluated the GABAergic effect of valerian extract and one of its ...
