[Effect of an irreversible inhibitor (RMI71645) of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transaminase on spontaneous and conditioned activities of mice]. 1976

R Misslin, and A Hinschberger, and P Ropartz, and P Mandel

The RMI, an irreversible inhibitor of GABA transaminase, inhibited, at the dose of 100 mg/kg, the activity of Mice placed in an open-field. At lower doses, RMI improved the activity in open-field and the number of conditioned avoidance reactions. Results are correlated with increase of the level of brain GABA, following administration of RMI.
