Background: Mounting evidence, consistent with our previous study, showed that γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor (GABAAR) played an indispensable role in airway inflammation and mucus hypersecretion in asthma. Monocyte chemotactic
BACKGROUND
Experimental data suggest general anesthetics preferring γ-aminobutyric acid receptor type A may increase postoperative pain in patients with persistent inflammation. The current study was designed to begin to test this hypothesis.
METHODS
Groups of rats were defined by the presence of
Cephalosporins have been well known to have potent convulsant activity. We studied the mechanism of the convulsions induced by cephalosporins. Cefazolin, cephaloridine, cefpirome and cefmetazole inhibited the receptor binding of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), an inhibitory transmitter in the
Four piperazinoquinolone antibacterial drugs (norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, and pipemidic acid), known to be gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) antagonists, fully reversed the inhibitory effect of GABA on [35S]t-butylbicyclophosphorothionate ([35S] TBPS) binding to rat brain membranes in vitro.
Adipocyte and β-cell dysfunction and macrophage-related chronic inflammation are critical for the development of obesity-related insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which can be negatively regulated by Tregs. Our previous studies and those of others have shown that activation of
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is both a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS and a product of beta cells of the peripheral islets. Our previous studies, and those of others, have shown that T cells express functional GABAA receptors. However, their subunit composition and physiological
BACKGROUND
The objectives of this study were to determine the in vitro anti-inflammatory and in vivo antihypertensive effects of fermented pepino (Solanum muricatum) milk by Lactobacillus brevis with the goal of developing functional healthy products. The inflammatory factors of fermented pepino
gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the CNS, and GABA transporter 1 (GAT-1) is critical in maintaining a GABA reservoir and associated functions. The wide expression of GAT-1 in the CNS prompted us to explore its role in neuroimmunological disorders. In mice
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects of gabapentin (GBP) in mice. The anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects were evaluated using various mediators that induce paw edema, peritonitis model, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity,
BACKGROUND
Recent studies have demonstrated a role for spinal p38 MAP kinase (MAPK) in the development of chronic inflammation and peripheral arthritis and a role for GABA in the inhibition of p38 MAPK mediated effects. Integrating these data suggests that GABA may play a role in downregulating
BACKGROUND
The Yi-nao-jie-yu decoction (YNJYD) is a herbal preparation widely used in the clinics of traditional Chinese medicine and has been recently used as an important new therapeutic agent in poststroke anxiety (PSA). The neuroendocrine-immune system plays an important role in PSA mechanisms,
γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter to suppress the immune-mediated pro-inflammatory reactions, and it has been used in the treatment of many inflammation-related diseases in vertebrates, while its immunomodulatory role in invertebrates has never been reported. In the
Chronic airway inflammation is a hallmark of asthma, an immune-based disease with great societal impact. Honokiol (HNK), a phenolic neurotransmitter receptor (γ-aminobutyric acid type A) agonist purified from magnolia, has anti-inflammatory properties, including stabilization of inflammation in
BACKGROUND
Brown rice (BR) is unpolished rice with various beneficial compounds such as vitamins, magnesium and other minerals, dietary fiber, essential fatty acids, γ-oryzanol and γ-aminobutyric acid. In the present study, we compared the effects of white rice (WR) and BR on inflammatory marker
