Melatonin increases in vivo GABA accumulation in rat hypothalamus, cerebellum, cerebral cortex and pineal gland

The effect of melatonin on in vivo γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) accumulation in several brain regions was determined by measuring the increase of GABA levels following inhibition of GABA transaminase. A single melatonin injection (25-300 μg/kg) augmented significantly, by 17-20%, GABA accumulation in...
