Besides being involved in a broad range of brain functions (Cherubini and Conti, 2001;Bragina et al, 2008;Conti et al, 2011;Kinjo et al, 2013;Scimemi, 2014;Savtchenko et al, 2015;Zafar and Jabeen, 2018), GAT-1 has also been implicated in the pathophysiology of a number of neuropsychiatric disorders including anxiety, depression, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and schizophrenia (Lai et al, 1998;Nägga et al, 1999;Pierri et al, 1999;Sundman-Eriksson and Allard, 2002;Conti et al, 2004;Lewis and Gonzalez-Burgos, 2006;Cope et al, 2009;Bitanihirwe and Woo, 2014;Carvill et al, 2015;Gong et al, 2015;Fuhrer et al, 2017;Mattison et al, 2018).…”
