Valerian extracts allosterically modulate GABAA receptors, an action related to valerenic acid, which is one of the active compounds determined from pharmacological studies.
These data may reflect differences in the number of GABAA receptors, the sensitivity of those channels to benzodiazepine activation, the subunit composition of at least some GABAA channels, or some combination of those differences in male versus female birds.
The protective action of PS was not affected by inhibition of protein synthesis or by blockade of glucocorticoid receptors, GABAA receptors or sigma-receptors.
It has been suggested that a decrease in the inhibitory tone of GABAA on GnRH neurons causes LH to surge (22).
Future studies may determine whether specific antagonists of the GABAC receptor result in a greater level of wakefulness than GABAA or GABAB antagonist drugs.
