• GABAB receptors, anxiety and mood disorders 

  Felice, Daniela; Cryan, John F.; O'Leary, Olivia F. (Springer, 2020-08-30)

  Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, acts at the ionotropic GABAA and GABAC receptors, and the metabotropic GABAB receptor. This chapter summarizes the studies that have ...
• Microbiota-brain interactions: Moving toward mechanisms in model organisms 

  Nagpal, Jatin; Cryan, John F. (Elsevier Inc., 2021-10-14)

  Changes in the microbiota are associated with alterations in nervous system structure-function and behavior and have been implicated in the etiology of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Most of these studies ...
