  2. 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]

    The GABA receptors are a class of receptors that respond to the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), ...

  4. GABA receptor antagonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABA_receptor_antagonist

    GABA receptor antagonists are drugs that inhibit the action of GABA. In general these drugs produce stimulant and convulsant effects, and are mainly used for counteracting overdoses of sedative drugs. Examples include bicuculline, securinine and metrazol, and the benzodiazepine GABA A receptor antagonist flumazenil.

  5. 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 ...

  6. GABAA receptor negative allosteric modulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABAA_receptor_negative...

    A GABA A receptor negative allosteric modulator is a negative allosteric modulator (NAM), or inhibitor, of the GABA A receptor, a ligand-gated ion channel of the major inhibitory neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). [1] [2] They are closely related and similar to GABA A receptor antagonists.

  7. GABAA-rho receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABAA-rho_receptor

    The GABA A-rho receptor (previously known as the GABA C receptor) is a subclass of GABA A receptors composed entirely of rho (ρ) subunits. GABA A receptors including those of the ρ-subclass are ligand-gated ion channels responsible for mediating the effects of gamma-amino butyric acid (), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain.
