Possible Interaction: Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid and Nitrous Oxide

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Like ketamine, which has a similar action on these receptors, nitrous oxide causes a neurotoxic reaction in rat brain that can be prevented by use of a c-amino-butyric acid ( GABA ) agonist such as a benzodiazepine, barbiturate, propofol, or an inhaled ether anaesthetic [22].
Anaesthesia  •  2004  |  View Paper
The present results indicated that N2O inhibits the activation of AMPA/KA and NMDA receptors and also that N2O preferentially depress the action potential-dependent GABA and glutamate releases but had little effects on spontaneous and miniature releases.

Nitrous oxide at 1.5 atm (the ED50 for loss of righting reflex in mice) and at 3 atm, significantly depressed the responses to GABA and to the nicotinic agonist, but did not alter the responses to methylfurmethide.
