We examined the interactions of D,L-laudanosine, a potentially epileptogenic metabolite of the neuromuscular relaxant atracurium besylate, with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and opioid binding sites, all of which have been implicated in seizure activity. Laudanosine was almost ineffective at [3H]muscimol binding

The influence of GABAA receptors on orientation selectivity of cat complex cells was tested by iontophoresis of the GABAA receptor blockers bicuculline and N-methyl-bicuculline while stimulating with drifting sinusoidal gratings. Reduction of orientation tuning was markedly less than reported in

gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Two classes of GABA receptors (GABAA and GABAB) have been identified. GABAA receptors are ligand-gated chloride channels that are competitively antagonized by bicuculline, noncompetitively blocked by picrotoxin

The morphological and functional consequences of epileptic activity were investigated by applying the convulsants bicuculline and/or picrotoxin to mature rat hippocampal slice cultures. After 3 days, some cells in all hippocampal subfields showed signs of degeneration, including swollen somata, vacuolation

1. Spontaneous non-NMDA glutamate receptor-mediated EPSCs were recorded with the whole-cell patch-clamp technique from twenty-six neurones in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus in thalamic slices from guinea-pig. 2. Amplitude distributions of the EPSCs were skewed towards larger values. The skewness
