The GABAergic nervous system of Caenorhabditis elegans.

Nature - 22 Jul 1993

McIntire S L, Jorgensen E, Kaplan J, Horvitz H R

Abstract excerpt

gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the most abundant inhibitory neurotransmitter in vertebrates and invertebrates. GABA receptors are the target of anxiolytic, antiepileptic and antispasmodic drugs, as well as of commonly used insecticides. How does a specific neurotransmitter such as GABA control...
