General description
GABAA and GABAB receptors differ with regard to their ionic characteristics and pharmacological properties. The GABAA receptor is an ionotropic receptor that forms the GABA gated chloride channel and consists of several heterogeneous subunits with membrane recognition sites for benzodiazapenes.
Immunogen
peptide corresponding to amino acid residues 1-15 of human GABA(A) receptor α3 subunit. Identical in rat and mouse. Highly conserved (14/15 residues) in bovine.
Application
Anti-GABAA Receptor (α3 subunit) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for immunohistochemistry at a working dilution of 1:200 using rat brain frozen sections and immunoblotting at 1:200-1:300 using rat brain membranes.
Biochem/physiol Actions
The inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA signals through two distinct types of pre- and postsynaptic receptors, GABAA and GABAB. Both GABA receptors can regulate depression of synaptic transmission and be involved in the inhibition controlling neuronal excitability. α3 is a subtype of GABAA receptor expressed selectively by serotonergic and GABAergic neurons. Serotonergic neurons express strong α3 immunoreactivity but, do not show any α1 immunoreactivity. On the contrary, GABAergic neurons express both α1 and α3 subunits.
Physical form
Lyophilized from phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin, 5% sucrose and 0.025% sodium azide

In the mammalian retina, amacrine cells represent the most diverse cell class and are involved in the spatio-temporal processing of visual signals in the inner plexiform layer. They are connected to bipolar, other amacrine and ganglion cells, forming complex networks

γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is thought to play a paracrine role in adrenal medullary chromaffin (AMC) cells. Comparative physiological and immunocytochemical approaches were used to address the issue of how the paracrine function of GABA in AMC cells is established. GABAA

In vertebrate retinas, wide-field amacrine cells represent a diverse class of interneurons, important for the extraction of selective features, like motion or objects, from the visual scene. Most types of wide-field amacrine cells lack dedicated output processes, whereas some types

GABAA-receptors in the brain display a striking structural heterogeneity, which is based on a multiplicity of diverse subunits. The allocation of GABAA-receptor subtypes to identified neurons is essential for an analysis of the functional significance of receptor heterogeneity. Among GABA-receptive
