| Abstract: | The adult brain is the result of a multistages complex neurodevelopmental process involving genetic, molecular and microenvironmental factors as well as diverse patterns of electrical activity. In the postnatal life, immature neuronal circuits undergo an experience-dependent maturation during critical periods of plasticity, but the brain still retains plasticity during adult life. In all these stages, the neurotransmitter GABA plays a pivotal role. In this chapter, we will describe the interaction of 5-HT with GABA in regulating neurodevelopment and plasticity. |
