Maternal taurine as a modulator of Cl– homeostasis as well as of glycine/GABAA receptors for neocortical development

During brain and spinal cord development, GABA and glycine, the inhibitory neurotransmitters, cause depolarization instead of hyperpolarization in adults. Since glycine and GABAA receptors (GABAARs) are chloride (Cl–) ion channel receptor, the conversion of GABA/glycine actions during development is...
