If you've heard of two of the brain's chemical neurotransmitters, it's probably dopamine and serotonin. Never mind that ...

Neurobiologists have made a breakthrough in understanding how environmental factors might contribute to autism spectrum ...

Researchers found that methamphetamine and PCP cause a phenomenon known as neurotransmitter switching, impairing memory. This ...

Excitatory amino-acid transporters (EAATs) terminate glutamate's actions and thus maintain proper neuronal function. These proteins are expressed in vast quantities by glia, but are also present ...

Alcohol’s sedative effects are also a result of its effects on the brain chemical glutamate, which is a stimulatory ...

Voltage clamp recording at an intermediate voltage shows that the two opposing neurotransmitters, glutamate and GABA, are co-released by a fraction of synapses in many regions throughout the brain.

Acamprosate modulates glutamate neurotransmitter pathways through an unknown mechanism to reduce alcohol withdrawal hyperexcitability. Acamprosate has been shown to be beneficial in a subgroup of ...

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s no wonder people are constantly searching for ways to relax, destress, and get a good night ...

The fly nervous system operates on the same fundamental biological principles as its human counterpart, and many neurotransmitter systems including dopamine, acetylcholine, glutamate, and GABA are ...
