Fast-acting inhibitory neurotransmitters {gamma-aminobutyric acid} (GABA) can come from glutamate and can be in basal ganglia, cerebellum, cerebral cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, retina, striatonigral, thalamus, and ventral pallidum. 20% of inhibitory neurons, mostly interneurons, use GABA. Valium enhances GABA activity.
