Difference between Gamma-Aminobutyric acid and General anaesthesia

Gamma-Aminobutyric acid vs. General anaesthesia

gamma-Aminobutyric acid, or γ-aminobutyric acid, or GABA, is the chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. General anaesthesia or general anesthesia (see spelling differences) is a medically induced coma with loss of protective reflexes, resulting from the administration of one or more general anaesthetic agents.

Similarities between Gamma-Aminobutyric acid and General anaesthesia

Gamma-Aminobutyric acid and General anaesthesia have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Asthma, Benzodiazepine, Central nervous system, Etomidate, Glutamic acid, Inhalational anaesthetic, Melatonin, Neuromuscular junction, Neurotransmitter, Propofol.

Asthma

Asthma is a common long-term inflammatory disease of the airways of the lungs.

Benzodiazepine

Benzodiazepines (BZD, BZs), sometimes called "benzos", are a class of psychoactive drugs whose core chemical structure is the fusion of a benzene ring and a diazepine ring.

Etomidate

Etomidate (USAN, INN, BAN) (marketed as Amidate) is a short-acting intravenous anaesthetic agent used for the induction of general anaesthesia and sedation for short procedures such as reduction of dislocated joints, tracheal intubation, and cardioversion.

Melatonin

Melatonin, also known as N-acetyl-5-methoxy tryptamine, is a hormone that is produced by the pineal gland in animals and regulates sleep and wakefulness.
