γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) acts on specific neural receptors [A, B and C(Aρ)] to modulate gastrointestinal function. The precise role of GABA receptor activation in the regulation of presynaptic nitric oxide (NO) synthesis in nerve terminals is unknown. Rat ileal nerve
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a progressive retinal degenerative disease that causes deterioration of rod and cone photoreceptors. A well-studied animal model of RP is the transgenic P23H rat, which carries a mutation in the rhodopsin gene. Previously, I reported that

Adenosine plays an important role in regulation of renal microcirculation. All receptors of adenosine, A1, A2A, A2B, and A3, have been found in the kidney. However, little is known about the location and function of the A3 receptor in the

In less than a decade our knowledge of the GABA(C) receptor, a new type of Cl(-)-permeable ionotropic GABA receptor, has greatly increased based on studies of both native and recombinant receptors. Careful comparison of properties of native and recombinant receptors
In the present study, we evaluated TACA (a potent agonist of GABA(A) and GABA(C) receptors) in the electroconvulsive threshold test in mice. Surprisingly, TACA (at 15 and 25 mg/kg) significantly decreased the threshold. The highest ineffective dose of TACA was
