CBNumber： CB3184042 英文名称： 4-Aminobutyric acid 中文名称： γ-氨基丁酸 MF： C4H9NO2 MW： 103.12 CAS： 56-12-2

γ- Aminobutyric acid is a strong neuroinhibitory amino acid that has physiological effects such as sedation, hypnosis, anticonvulsant, and blood pressure lowering. It is an inhibitory neurotransmitter that can inhibit animal activity and reduce energy consumption. Aminobutyric acid acts on animal cells γ- Aminobutyric acid receptor, γ- The aminobutyrate chemicalbook acid receptor is a chloride ion channel, γ- The inhibitory or excitatory properties of aminobutyric acid depend on the concentration of chloride ions inside and outside the cell membrane, γ- After the activation of the aminobutyric acid receptor, it leads to the opening of chloride ion channels, which can increase the permeability of the cell membrane to chloride ions, causing chloride ions to flow into nerve cells, causing hyperpolarization of the cell membrane, inhibiting neuronal activation, and thereby reducing animal movement.
