Individual differences in GABA content are reliable but are not uniform across the human cortex
2016
NeuroImage
We asked whether individual differences in MRS estimates of GABA are uniform across the cortex or vary between regions. ...
GABA estimates within each region were stable across weeks, with low coefficients of variation. Despite this stability, the GABA estimates were not correlated between regions. ...
in GABA levels are uniform throughout the cortex or are region-specific. ...

Individual Differences in Resting Corticospinal Excitability Are Correlated with Reaction Time and GABA Content in Motor Cortex
2017
Journal of Neuroscience
Interestingly, larger MEPs were associated with higher levels of GABA in M1, but not in three other cortical regions. ...
Here, we examined the relationship between individual differences in intrinsic corticospinal excitability, local cortical GABA levels, and reaction time (RT) in a group of 20 healthy human adults. ...
This regional specificity is in accord with our previous work showing that individual differences in GABA concentration are reliable within a voxel but exhibit, at best, a modest correlation between regions ...

Anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Reduces Psychophysically Measured Surround Suppression in the Human Visual Cortex
2012
PLoS ONE
It has been reported that anodal tDCS can reduce both GABA mediated inhibition and GABA concentration within the human motor cortex. ...
The aim of this study was to assess whether anodal tDCS could reduce inhibitory interactions within the human visual cortex. ...
These results are consistent with recent work demonstrating that anodal but not cathodal tDCS can reduce GABA mediated inhibition within the human motor cortex [6, 7, 8, 16] and are the first to demonstrate ...

Multi-Regional Investigation of the Relationship between Functional MRI Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent (BOLD) Activation and GABA Concentration
2015
PLoS ONE
Subtle differences in study design or insufficient power may cause differing results; these and other potential reasons for the discrepant results are discussed. ...
In contrast to the prior literature, no correlation between GABA concentration and BOLD activation was detected in any region. The origin of this discrepancy is not clear. ...
The inter-individual relationships between the peak BOLD signal within the MRS voxel and GABA concentration are shown in Fig. 4 . ...

Non-uniformity of Neocortex: Areal Heterogeneity of NADPH-diaphorase Reactive Neurons in Adult Macaque Monkeys
2000
Cerebral Cortex
Consideration of individual layers shows significant differences in 13/15 comparisons. ...
Areal densities of type 1 neurons are minimal in areas V1 and V2, and twice as dense in the frontal cortex. ...
An analysis of variance (ANOVA) across areas was performed for all NADPH-d-positive neurons, * 0.65/n.s. 0.15/n.s. Area 6 *** ...

Effects of Diazepam on Reaction Times to Stop and Go
2020
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
The selective effect of diazepam on ocSSRT but not simple RT suggests that GABAergic neurons may play a critical role in movement-stopping. ...
Conclusion: Our results confirm that a single therapeutic adult dose of diazepam can alter motor inhibition in drug naïve healthy individuals. ...
Changes in ocSSRT and RT from before to after placebo or drug ingestion were not distributed significantly differently from normal across the population (Shapiro-Wilk test statistic; p < 0.8 in all cases ...

Imaging the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder - from localist models to circuit-based analysis
2014
Biology of Mood & Anxiety Disorders
In light of this challenge, the focus of the current review is to provide a critical summary of key findings from different neuroimaging approaches in MDD research, including structural, functional and ...
Frustratingly little movement has been achieved on this front, however, and the 'gold-standard' of diagnostic validity and reliability remains expert consensus. ...

Gad67 haploinsufficiency reduces amyloid pathology and rescues olfactory memory deficits in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease
2017
Molecular Neurodegeneration
We and others have recently found that GABA content is elevated in AD brains and linked to cognitive deficits in AD mouse models. ...
However, whether Gad67 is involved in AD pathology has not been well studied. ...

Dorsolateral prefrontal γ-aminobutyric acid in patients with treatment-resistant depression after transcranial magnetic stimulation measured with magnetic resonance spectroscopy
2019
Journal of Psychiatry & Neuroscience
We used proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to assess changes in GABA levels at the site of rTMS in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). ...
The therapeutic mechanism of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for treatment-resistant depression (TRD) may involve modulation of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels. ...
Finally, we found that the use of GABA agonists was not associated with changes in GABA levels, but was associated with inferior treatment response. ...

Glutamate and GABA in autism spectrum disorder—a translational magnetic resonance spectroscopy study in man and rodent models
2018
Translational Psychiatry
Abnormalities in glutamate and GABA signaling have been hypothesized to underlie ASD symptoms, and may form a therapeutic target, but it is not known whether these abnormalities are recapitulated in humans ...
In humans with ASD, glutamate concentration was reduced in the striatum and this was correlated with the severity of social symptoms. GABA levels were not altered in either brain region. ...
We are grateful to L. Ozmen and her team for maintaining animal colonies. ...

The contribution of [1H] magnetic resonance spectroscopy to the study of excitation-inhibition in autism
2018
Progress in Neuro-psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry
In addition, there are no means to identify biologically responsive individuals who may benefit from specific interventions. ...
There is hope however, and in this review we consolidate how findings from magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) add to the evidence that differences in the brain's excitatory glutamate and inhibitory ...
Using [1H]MRS, we found that the anti-glutamate and pro-GABA drug riluzole increased the proportion of GABA+ relative to the total level of GABA+ and Glx metabolites in the prefrontal cortex in ASD, but ...

The relationship between pubertal hormones and brain plasticity: Implications for cognitive training in adolescence
2020
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience
We build on existing age-comparative cognitive training studies to explore how the potential for change in neural resources and behavioral repertoire differs across age groups. ...
As the age of pubertal onset is decreasing across developed societies, this may also have important educational and clinical implications, especially with respect to the effects that earlier puberty has ...
