beta-cypermethrin
GABA transaminase activity detected is significantly decreased in the cerebral cortex of mice 2 h after beta-cypermethrin administration. beta-Cypermethrin (80 mg/kg) significantly increases GABA levels in the cerebral cortex of mice, at both 2 and 4 h after treatment, compared with the control. The number of positive granules is increased in the cerebral cortex of mice 4 h after exposure to 80 mg/kg beta-cypermethrin. No significant changes are found in glutamate decarboxylase activity, or the expression of GABA transaminase protein and GABAB receptors mRNA, in the cerebral cortex of mice, except that 80 mg/kg beta-cypermethrin causes a significant decrease in GABAA receptors mRNA expression 4 h after administration

vigabatrin
-
triggers a massive synaptic plasticity in retinal areas showing a normal layering of the retina shown by the withdrawal of rod but not cone photoreceptor terminals from the outer plexiform layers towards their cell bodies. Both rod bipolar cells and horizontal cells exhibit dendritic sprouting into the photoreceptor nuclear layer. Withdrawing rod photoreceptors appear to form ectopic contacts with growing postsynaptic dendrites. Neuronal plasticity is highly suggestive of an impaired glutamate release by photoreceptors
