Can Toxins Induce Imbalance Between Inhibitory and Excitatory Neurotransmitters?
Yes, toxins can disrupt the delicate balance between inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters. This imbalance can lead to a range of neurological symptoms including seizures, anxiety, and muscle spasms. Some excitotoxic agents can overstimulate neurons to the point of damage or death, exacerbating the effects of inhibitory neurotransmitter disruption.
