GABAergic Neuron-Specific Loss of Ube3a Causes Angelman Syndrome-Like EEG Abnormalities and Enhances Seizure Susceptibility. Neuron, 2016; DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2016.02.040; ...

This study has helped determine that UBE3A gene loss specifically from GABAergic neurons is what's critical for seizures in Angelman patients. But UBE3A loss from other neuron types may drive ...

GABAergic — release GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric acid). They are often inhibitory, meaning that they reduce the chance that the postsynaptic neuron will fire. Cholinergic — release acetylcholine.

"These neurons are mostly GABAergic (neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid and the system of neurons that use it), meaning they work to calm down or inhibit the activity of nearby neurons ...

In a major step forward in research, scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) today publish in Cell a discovery about the molecular-genetic basis of neuronal cell types. Neurons are the ...
