Gaba: A Key Neurotransmitter For Brain Function And Therapeutic Potential
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is a crucial neurotransmitter that inhibits neural activity. It interacts with GABAA and GABAB receptors to reduce neuronal excitability. GABAergic neurons synthesize and release GABA, forming synapses where it binds to receptors and modulates synaptic transmission. Factors such as neurotransmitters and drugs can affect GABAergic synapses, contributing to neural plasticity. GABAergic interneurons…
