Alterations in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) metabolism have been investigated in the kindling model of epilepsy. Numerous generalized seizures were induced by amygdala-kindling stimulations in rats. One week after the last stimulation, there were no changes in GABA levels nor in the activity of enzymes responsible for the synthesis (glutamic acid decarboxylase) and catabolism (GABA transaminase and succinyl semialdehyde dehydrogenase). These results do not exclude other changes in GABA function as modifications of transport or receptors.
