2. N-Acetyl-γ-aminobutyric acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Acetyl-γ-aminobutyric_acid

   [2] [3] [4] The pathway is a minor pathway in GABA synthesis compared to the main pathway in which GABA is synthesized from glutamate. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] However, the pathway has been found to have an important physiological role in the brain, for instance in the production of GABA in the striatum and resultant inhibition of dopaminergic neurons ...

3. Picamilon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picamilon

   Picamilon (also known as N-nicotinoyl-GABA, pycamilon, and pikamilon) is a drug formed by a synthetic combination of niacin and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It was developed in the Soviet Union in 1969 [ 3 ] and further studied in both Russia [ 4 ] and Japan as a prodrug of GABA.

4. γ-Amino-β-hydroxybutyric acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Γ-amino-β-hydroxybutyric...

   γ-Amino-β-hydroxybutyric acid (GABOB), also known as β-hydroxy-γ-aminobutyric acid (β-hydroxy-GABA), sold under the brand name Gamibetal among others, is an anticonvulsant which is used for the treatment of epilepsy in Europe, Japan, and Mexico.

5. Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit gamma-2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma-aminobutyric_acid...

   Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, mediates neuronal inhibition by binding to GABA receptors. The type A GABA receptors are pentameric chloride channels assembled from among many genetic variants of GABA(A) subunits. This gene encodes the gamma 2 subunit of GABA(A) receptor.

6. GABA receptor agonist - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABA_receptor_agonist

   Gamma-aminobutyric acid, a GABA-B receptor agonist. A GABA receptor agonist is a drug that is an agonist for one or more of the GABA receptors, producing typically sedative effects, and may also cause other effects such as anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and muscle relaxant effects. [1] There are three receptors of the gamma-aminobutyric acid. The ...

7. GABA reuptake inhibitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABA_reuptake_inhibitor

   A GABA reuptake inhibitor (GRI) is a type of drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor for the neurotransmitter gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) by blocking the action of the gamma-Aminobutyric acid transporters (GATs). This in turn leads to increased extracellular concentrations of GABA and therefore an increase in GABAergic neurotransmission. [1]

8. GABA analogue - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABA_analogue

   A GABA analogue is a compound which is an analogue or derivative of the neurotransmitter gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) (the IUPAC of which is 4-aminobutanoic acid). Many GABA analogues are used as drugs , especially as anticonvulsants , sedatives , and anxiolytics .

9. Gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit alpha-1 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma-aminobutyric_acid...

   GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. At least 16 distinct subunits of GABA-A receptors have been identified. [6]
