Although a sex-specific finding for GLT1 and GAD1 in the context of TBI has not previously been reported, this decrease in CCI females compared to CCI males may further explain the increased susceptibility of females to PTZ injection in this study, given that GLT1 translation has previously been reported to be neuroprotective in the context of pilocarpine-induced temporal lobe epilepsy (Kong et al., 2014). The gene discussed is GAD1; the disease is temporal lobe epilepsy.
