Abstract
We studied the possibility of induction of anti-GABA autoantibodies during chronic epileptization of the brain and the effect of systemic intraperitoneal administration of anti-GABA antibodies to C57Bl/6 mice on acute generalized and chronic epileptiform activity. It was found for the first time that chronic epileptization is accompanied by induction of anti-GABA autoantibody synthesis. Antibodies against GABA produced a proepileptic effect.
