gamma-aminobutyric acid and Cholestasis

gamma-aminobutyric acid has been researched along with Cholestasis in 8 studies

gamma-Aminobutyric Acid: The most common inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system.
gamma-aminobutyric acid : A gamma-amino acid that is butanoic acid with the amino substituent located at C-4.

Cholestasis: Impairment of bile flow due to obstruction in small bile ducts (INTRAHEPATIC CHOLESTASIS) or obstruction in large bile ducts (EXTRAHEPATIC CHOLESTASIS).

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Pruritus is defined as the second order of nociception, the first being pain; thus, there is a rationale to study gabapentin, a drug that increases the threshold to experience nociception."9.12Gabapentin in patients with the pruritus of cholestasis: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. ( Bergasa, NV; Engler, D; Ginsburg, IH; McGee, M, 2006)
"Combined spinal administration of gabapentin and low doses of morphine significantly reduces pain-related behaviors in this acute rat pancreatitis model, whereas these agents were ineffective when used alone in this dose range."7.72Intrathecal gabapentin enhances the analgesic effects of subtherapeutic dose morphine in a rat experimental pancreatitis model. ( Lu, Y; Smiley, MM; Vera-Portocarrero, LP; Westlund, KN; Zidan, A, 2004)
" In this study, intrathecal gabapentin, which by itself is ineffective when administered spinally, was combined with low-dose morphine and tested in an acute bradykinin-induced pancreatitis model in rats."7.72Intrathecal gabapentin enhances the analgesic effects of subtherapeutic dose morphine in a rat experimental pancreatitis model. ( Lu, Y; Smiley, MM; Vera-Portocarrero, LP; Westlund, KN; Zidan, A, 2004)
"Gabapentin was associated with an increase in mean HSA, in contrast to the placebo, which was associated with a decrease."6.72Gabapentin in patients with the pruritus of cholestasis: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. ( Bergasa, NV; Engler, D; Ginsburg, IH; McGee, M, 2006)

"Morphine sulfate has long been used for analgesia, but clinical applications can be limited by side effects, tolerance, and potential for addiction at therapeutic doses."5.32Intrathecal gabapentin enhances the analgesic effects of subtherapeutic dose morphine in a rat experimental pancreatitis model.
