γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a major neurotransmitter that plays a critical inhibitory role in regulating the cellular excitability of neurons. GABA is biosynthesized by glutamate decarboxylase enzymes (i.e., GAD65 and GAD67), packaged into secretory vesicles by the GABA transporter (i.e., vGAT), released from presynaptic terminals, and activates ...
