Application

Isoguvacine hydrochloride has been used as a γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor agonist:
  • to study its effects on neuronal activity in rats[1]
  • to study its antiallodynic effect in rats[2]
  • to study its effects on baroreflex gains in rats [3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Isoguvacine is a strong γ-aminobutyric acid A (GABAA) receptor agonist.[4]

Gabapentin is a novel analgesic whose mechanism of action is not known. We investigated in a postoperative pain model whether adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive K+ (K(ATP)) channels, N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptors, and Ca2+ channels are involved in the antiallodynic effect of

The interruption of intracortical, chronic GABA infusion is known to give rise to 'GABA withdrawal syndrome' (GWS) consisting of electroencephalographic paroxysmal focal activities, associated with behavioral epileptic signs. Neocortical slices were obtained from rats presenting the GWS (GWS slices), and

A striking effect of stimulating the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) is its ability to inhibit central inspiratory activity (cause ‘phrenic apnoea'), but the mechanism underlying this inhibition remains unclear. Here we demonstrate, by stimulating the SLN at varying frequencies, that

Dopaminergic neurons are subject to a significant background GABAergic input in vivo. The presence of this GABAergic background might be expected to inhibit dopaminergic neuron firing. However, dopaminergic neurons are not all silent but instead fire in single-spiking and burst
