2010, Experimental NeurologyCitation Excerpt :These high-affinity transporters are thought to constrain the extent of diffusion of GABA from the release sites and, thus, the length of time which the transmitter spends in the synaptic cleft and in the extrasynaptic space. Of the four identified GAT genes (GAT-1, GAT-2, GAT-3 and B-GAT, Borden, 1996; Dalby, 2003), only GAT-1 and GAT-3 mRNA or protein expressions have been described in the pallidum (Durkin et al., 1995; Ikegaki et al., 1994; Ng et al., 2000; Wang and Ong, 1999; Yasumi et al., 1997). We have previously shown that GAT-1 and GAT-3 are expressed in glia, and to a lesser extent in pre-terminal axons, and that both transporters modulate GABA levels and neuronal activity in the monkey GPe and GPi (Galvan et al., 2005).
Cloning and characterization of a functional human γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter, human GAT-2
2007, Journal of Biological ChemistryCitation Excerpt :Furthermore expression in liver (46) and in eye and the gastrointestinal system has been reported (57). The rGAT-2 has been detected in brain and retina, and in peripheral tissues it has been found in kidney, liver, heart, spleen, pancreas, and adrenal gland (11, 36, 39). The expression of mGAT3 has been found to be more restricted with low abundance in adult mouse brain and higher levels of expression in kidney and liver.

2006, Brain ResearchCitation Excerpt :In an elegant review, Dalby (2003) points particularities of all subtypes of GABA transporters, and describes their regional distribution. Therefore, in situ, labeling for GAT-1 mRNA was detected in the limbic system, basal forebrain, the rostrocaudal extent of the cortex and in the cerebellar cortex (Liu et al., 1993; Swan et al., 1994; Ikegaki et al., 1994; Minelli et al., 1995; Durkin et al., 1995). In contrast, GAT-3 mRNA is expressed predominantly in the thalamus, hypothalamus, a minor part of the pyriform cortex (amygdala region), inferior colliculus, pons, brainstem and deep cerebellar nuclei (Ikegaki et al., 1994).
