GABAjärjestelmät
GABAjärjestelmät refers to systems that utilize gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA. GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system of mammals. When GABA binds to its receptors, it typically leads to a decrease in neuronal excitability, effectively calming down nerve activity. This inhibitory function plays a crucial role in regulating anxiety, sleep, muscle tone, and overall brain function.
Dysfunction within GABAjärjestelmät has been implicated in a variety of neurological and psychiatric conditions. Imbalances in
Pharmaceuticals that enhance GABAergic activity are commonly prescribed as sedatives, anxiolytics, and anticonvulsants. For instance, benzodiazepines
