Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Concentration Changes in Response to Stress and Altered Availability of Glutamic Acid in Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) Brain Limbic Structures

Abstract: Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is an enzyme that catalyses the formation of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the most important inhibitory neurotransmitter, from glutamic acid (Glu), which is considered the most important excitatory transmitter in the central and peripheral nervous systems. GAD is a key enzyme that provides a balance between Glu and GABA concentration. Hence, it can be assumed that if the GAD executes the synthesis of GABA from Glu, it is important in the stress response, and thus also in trigge… Show more

“…DA of the mesocortical and mesolimbic pathways is involved in memory, learning and emotional processes (30). Stress increases DA concentrations in the frontal cortex, local changes in DA after stressors in limbic cortex fields may be associated with changes in behavior in response to stress stimuli (17,31).…”

“…[ 70 ] GABAergic system closely interacts with the dopaminergic, serotonergic and cholinergic neurotransmitter systems. [ 70 ] GABA signalling is controlled by levels of GAD67, the major isozymes responsible for GABA content in the PFC. The PFC is been found to be involved in the alteration of neurocognitive functions following binge alcohol consumption.…”
