Possible Interaction: Dexamethasone and Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The results suggested that dexamethasone enhanced the expression of hypothalamic L-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) 67 by activating GR, further stimulating the conversion of glutamate to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and inducing an imbalance in glutamatergic/GABAergic afferents in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN).

The chronic or acute administration of dexamethasone downregulates glutamate release as well as upregulates GABA release and GABAergic neuron spiking.

The authors also show that DEX leads to a rapid nitric oxide-dependent increase in inhibitory postsynaptic inputs [ie, -aminobutyric acid

These findings indicate that DEX induces an enhancement of GABA release in the DMV, which is mediated by activation of TRPV1 receptors on afferent terminals.
We tested the hypothesis that the glucocorticoid agonist dexamethasone (DEX) modulates GABA release in the rat dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV).

Methylprednisolone sodium succinate (MPSS), dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DMSP), and prednisolone sodium succinate (PSS) all prevented the inhibition of GABA uptake by X/XO.
