bolism of the Inhibitory Neurotransmitter γ‐Aminobutyric Acid in a Rabbit Model of Fulminant Hepatic Failure
Peter Ferenci, David Covell, Daniel F. Schafer, Jeanne G. Waggoner, Richard Shrager, E. Anthony Jones – 1 January 1983 – The serum concentration of 7‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) has been found to be elevated by more than an order of magnitude in a rabbit model of acute hepatic failure. A potential mechanism for increased serum GABA levels in liver failure is decreased catabolism of GABA.
