1 GAD65 is essential for synthesis of GABA destined for tonic inhibition regulating epileptiform activity. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
2 GABA is synthesized from glutamate by glutamate decarboxylase (GAD), which exists in two isoforms, that is, GAD65 and GAD67. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
3 In contrast, the functional significance of GAD65 in the maintenance of GABA destined for extrasynaptic tonic inhibition is less well studied. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
4 An impaired tonic inhibition in GAD65-/- mice was revealed demonstrating a significant role of GAD65 in the synthesis of GABA acting extrasynaptically. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
5 An impaired tonic inhibition in GAD65-/- mice was revealed demonstrating a significant role of GAD65 in the synthesis of GABA acting extrasynaptically. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
6 The correlation between an altered tonic inhibition and metabolic events as well as the functional and metabolic role of GABA synthesized by GAD65 was further investigated in vivo. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
7 Tonic inhibition and the demand for biosynthesis of GABA were augmented by injection of kainate into GAD65-/- and GAD65+/+ mice. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
8 Tonic inhibition and the demand for biosynthesis of GABA were augmented by injection of kainate into GAD65-/- and GAD65+/+ mice. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
9 These findings underline the importance of GAD65 for synthesis of GABA destined for extrasynaptic tonic inhibition, regulating epileptiform activity. gamma-Aminobutyric Acid glutamic acid decarboxylase 2 Mus musculus
