The ratio of GABA to Cr was significantly lower in the ASD group than the control subjects.

In contrast, creatine was reduced significantly less then GABA (∼19% signal loss).

Creatine uptake was inhibited by a 100-fold excess of various compounds with the following potency order: cold creatine = guanidinopropionic acid > nipecotic acid > gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) = beta-alanine = betaine, whereas carnitine, glycine, taurine, and choline were without effect.

Creatine (25 mM) also diminished the release of [3H]GABA (expressed as dpm/mg wet weight) from rat neostriatal slices, probably by reducing its synthesis and thus its readily releasable pool.
Thus, indirect evidence was obtained that creatine decreased the activity of the synthesizing enzyme of GABA , i.e., glutamate decarboxylase.
