(Details...) Wikipedia Article(s)
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. It plays an important role in regulating neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. GABA is also directly responsible for the regulation of muscle tone. GABA behaves primarily as an excitatory neurotransmitter in insect species. Although some GABA can be found in pancreatic islet cells and kidney, there are no significant amounts of GABA in mammalian tissues other than the tissues of the nervous system. In spastic cerebral palsy in humans, GABA cannot be absorbed properly by the damaged nerve rootlets corresponding to affected muscles, which leads to hypertonia in those muscles. Disrupted GABAergic signaling has been implicated in numerous and varied neurological and psychiatric pathologies including movement and anxiety disorders, epilepsy, schizophrenia, and addiction.
