  • Title: Pre- and postsynaptic effects of taurine and GABA in the cockroach central nervous system.
    Author: Hue B, Pelhate M, Chanelet J.
    Journal: Can J Neurol Sci; 1979 May; 6(2):243-50. PubMed ID: 487318.
    Abstract:
    Taurine resembles GABA in its synaptic effects in the cockroach cercal nerve giant fiber synapse where it exerts a depressant action upon synaptic transmission. Both taurine and GABA produce an increased conductance of pre- and postsynaptic membranes through changes in the permeability of chloride ions.
