γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA)

Signal transmission across synapses between neurons is mediated by neurotransmitter release from presynaptic axon terminals and receptor activation at postsynaptic neurons. GABA, a non-protein amino acid produced by the decarboxylation of glutamic acid, is a major neurotransmitter at inhibitory synapses in the vertebrate and invertebrates’ nervous systems. On the one hand, glutamic acid is a major excitatory neurotransmitter.

Most neurones (neurons) in the human central nervous system (CNS) send signals quickly and precisely via two primary types of neuronal activity: activation by glutamic acid and suppression by -aminobutyric acid (GABA). The activity of glutamic acid decarboxylase produces GABA from glutamic acid (GAD).

it important to know a person's rhesus factor before a blood transfusion? A patient who is Rh+ can receive only Rh– blood. A pat
timofeeve [1]

The right answer is A patient who is Rh– can receive only Rh– blood.

The blood group is not the only thing that matters, it adds a category: rhesus. Rhesus refers to a red blood cell antigen that is on their wall. There are two blood group systems: Rh positive (Rh +) and Rh negative (Rh-).

Rhesus is positive in people who have this antigen. It concerns the majority of the population. Negative rhesus refers to people without the antigen. This rhesus factor is especially useful to know if a blood transfusion is feasible between two people.

The blood transfusions can be "iso-rhesus", that is to say between Rh + and Rh- but only in one sense: Rh- can give to Rh + but Rh + can not give to Rh-. Again because of the presence of antibodies directed against the antigen in Rh- people.
