The concentration of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was determined in vas deferens, prostate, epididymis, seminal vesicle and testicle of the adult rat. Among the organs examined, vas deferens was found to be the richest in GABA and the lowest concentration was measured in testicle. Although the GABA levels appear to be 10-50 times lower in the sex organs examined than in the brain tissue, even the low GABA contents are suggestive of a role of this amino acid in the reproductive organs of the male rat.
测定了成年大鼠输精管、前列腺、附睾、精囊和睾丸中γ-氨基丁酸（GABA）的浓度。在所检查的器官中，发现输精管中的GABA含量最高，而睾丸中的浓度最低。尽管在所检查的性器官中GABA水平似乎比脑组织低10 - 50倍，但即使是低含量的GABA也表明这种氨基酸在雄性大鼠生殖器官中发挥作用。
