The decline of learning and memory ability is accompanied by varying degrees of dysfunction of the central nervous system, and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. In recent years, studies have found that GABA is closely related to learning and memory. When GABA binds to its receptors GABAa, GABAb and GABAc, it triggers a series of effects, which play a role in regulating learning and memory. Therefore, this paper summarizes the influence of GABA on learning and memory based on the study of the effects of GABA source, GABA receptor and GABA on learning and memory, and provides a research direction for drug therapy in clinical learning and memory impairment.
