Similarities and interactions between GABAergic and glutaminergic systems.

Halina Car, K Wiśniewski

Open publisher page 15 citations

Abstract

Harmonious interactions between neurotransmitter systems are important for regulating the activity in the central nervous system (CNS). gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate (Glu) are major inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters in the mammalian central nervous system. Neuronal excitability, probably synaptic plasticity, cognitive performance, learning and memory processes frequently the results of the balance of GABAergic inhibitory and glutaminergic excitatory inputs.
