The GABA type A receptor (GABA(A)R) is expressed ubiquitously throughout the brain and is a target for many therapeutic agents, including general anesthetics and benzodiazepines, which enhance receptor function by increasing the open probability (P(o)) of the ion channel. It

Neurosteroids are produced in the brain, and can have rapid actions on membrane channels of neurons. Pregnenolone sulfate (PS) is a sulfated neurosteroid which reduces the responses of the [gamma]-aminobutyric acid A (GABA(A)) receptor. We analysed the actions of PS

Using systematic combination of alpha 1, alpha 3, and alpha 5 with beta 1, beta 2, and beta 3, together with gamma 1, gamma 2, and gamma 3, we have investigated the contributions of the various alpha, beta, and gamma

In order to study the correlation of the thermodynamic driving forces of binding with the efficacies of displacing ligands, the specific binding of [3H]SR 95531 [2-(3-carboxypropyl)3-amino-6-p-methoxyphenylpyridazinium bromide], a GABA(A) receptor antagonist, was studied in cell lines stably expressing human alpha(1)beta(3)gamma(2)

Using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique, we have determined that propofol, but not midazolam, increases the efficacy of piperidine-4-sulphonic acid (P4S), a partial agonist at alpha1beta1gamma2s, GABA(A) receptors expressed in HEK 293 cells. These findings are consistent with the idea that
