15619231 Chen Z, Silva AC, Yang J, Shen J: Elevated endogenous GABA level correlates with decreased fMRI signals in the rat brain during acute inhibition of GABA transaminase. J Neurosci Res. 2005 Feb 1;79(3):383-91.

The time course of GABA concentration after acute GABA transaminase inhibition was measured quantitatively in the alpha-chloralose-anesthetized rat brain using in vivo selective homonuclear polarization transfer spectroscopy.

Rates of turnover of cortical glutamate and GABA from intravenously administered [1-13C] glucose were measured in alpha-chloralose anesthetized rats 24 hours after receiving vigabatrin (500 mg/kg, i.p.) and in non-treated controls.

With markedly improved (1) H{(13) C} magnetic resonance spectroscopy technique and the use of high magnetic field strength of 11.7 T accessible to the current study, [4-(13) C] glutamate at 2.35 ppm was spectrally resolved from overlapping resonances of [4-(13) C] glutamine at 2.46 ppm and [2-(13) C] GABA at 2.28 ppm as well as the more distal [3-(13) C] glutamate and [3-(13) C] glutamine.

In the present study we compared V (GAD) in cortex of control and vigabatrin-treated rats under alpha-chloralose/70% nitrous oxide anesthesia, with total GAD activity and GAD isoform composition (GAD (65) and GAD (67)) measured by enzymatic assay and quantitative immunoblotting.

The influence of pretreatment with 1 through 300 mg/kg ip of isoniazid (ISO) on blood pressure and heart rate responses to 0.1 mg/kg iv of hydralazine (HYD) was assessed in rats anesthetized with chloralose--urethane.
Similarly, ISO decreased cerebral gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) at the two highest doses; 30 mg/kg was without effect.

Under urethane (800 mg/kg) and alpha-chloralose (40 mg/kg) anesthesia, renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded in sinoaortic-denervated and cervical-vagotomized rats.
Vigabatrin (10 nmol), a selective GABA-transaminase inhibitor which increases endogenous GABA level, abolished CSAR, and decreased baseline RSNA, MAP and HR.
