To explore the role of endogenous GABA in NMDA antagonist induced dopamine (DA) release, we used in vivo microdialysis to study the effects of pretreatment with γ-vinyl GABA (GVG) on phencyclidine ...
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. An enzyme called glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) is involved in the synthesis of GABA. Results indicate that the ...
N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors are ligand-gated cation channels activated by glutamate, an excitatory neurotransmitter. These receptors are located mostly at excitatory synapses and, thereby, ...
