The major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), has only partial efficacy at certain subtypes of GABA(A) receptors. To characterize these minor receptor populations in rat and mouse brains, we used autoradiographic imaging of t-butylbicyclophosphoro[(35)S]thionate ([(35)S]TBPS) binding to

A chimeric GABA(A) receptor subunit was constructed that contained the beta3 sequence from the N-terminus to the first two amino acids of the second transmembrane (TM2) domain. The remaining part of this chimera had the sequence of the alpha1 subunit.

The role of t-butylbicyclophosphorothionate (TBPS) as an antagonist of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was studied with primary cultures of neurons from the chick embryo cerebrum. The addition of GABA stimulated the uptake of 36Cl- by neurons and the dose dependence of

The behavioral and functional significance of the extrasynaptic inhibitory GABA(A) receptors in the brain is still poorly known. We used a transgenic mouse line expressing the GABA(A) receptor alpha6 subunit gene in the forebrain under the Thy-1.2 promoter (Thy1alpha6) mice

Glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) are major excitatory and inhibitory retinal neurotransmitters. The balance between these signals is a key principle of organization at retinal level. Although glutamate-induced excitotoxicity could mediate retinal ganglion cell death in glaucoma, the GABAergic system
