GABA signaling and neuroactive steroids in adrenal medullary chromaffin cells

GABA is produced not only in the brain, but also in endocrine cells by the two isoforms of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), GAD65 and GAD67. In rat adrenal medullary chromaffin cells only GAD67 is expressed, and GABA is stored in large dense core vesicles, but not synaptic-like microvesicles. The...
