The characteristics of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) release as monitored by microdialysis have been investigated in the chloral hydrate anaesthetised rat. The high outflow of GABA following insertion of the microdialysis probe (membrane 2 mm in length, 0.5 mm in diameter)
The inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is not solely located in the CNS, it and the enzymes responsible for its synthesis (glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD, EC 4.1.1.15) and catabolism (GABA-transaminase, GABA-T, EC 2.6.1.19) are also present in non-neuronal organs. Following

To explore recent suggestions that genetically obese Zucker rats show less anorexia when brain gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is elevated, obese vs. lean littermates received 100, 50 and 0 micrograms of the GABA-transaminase inhibitor, ethanolamine-O-sulfate (EOS), intra-cisternally in a longitudinal design
1. Oral administration of the GABA transaminase inhibitor ethanolamine-O-sulphate (EOS, 5 mg/ml in drinking water) to rats for 14 days suppressed food intake by 24%, but reduced weight gain by over 35%. 2. Thus, feed efficiency (g gain/MJ eaten) was
We carried out the forced swimming test in mice to investigate the antidepressant potentials of GABA transaminase (GABA-T) inhibitors including aminooxyacetic acid, ethanolamine-O-sulfate, gamma-vinyl GABA (GVG) and valproic acid (VPA). In acute experiments only GVG reduced immobility. Following chronic oral
