Antisera to gamma -aminobutyric acid. 2. Immunocytochemical application to the central nervous system

An antiserum to gamma -aminobutyric acid (GABA) was tested for the localization of GABAergic neurons in the central nervous system using the unlabeled antibody enzyme method under pre- and postembedding conditions. The antiserum allows the demonstration of immunoreactive GABA in neurons containing o...

Zusammenfassung:An antiserum to gamma -aminobutyric acid (GABA) was tested for the localization of GABAergic neurons in the central nervous system using the unlabeled antibody enzyme method under pre- and postembedding conditions. The antiserum allows the demonstration of immunoreactive GABA in neurons containing other nueroactive substances; cholecystokinin and GABA immunoreactivities have been shown in the same neurons of the hippocampus. In conclusion, antisera to GABA are good markers for the localization of GABAergic neuronal circuits.
