GABA-Independent GABAA Receptor Openings Maintain Tonic Currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Activation of GABAA receptors (GABAARs) produces two forms of inhibition: ‘phasic’ inhibition generated by the rapid, transient activation of synaptic GABAARs by presynaptic GABA release, and tonic inhibition generated by the persistent activation of ...

Reduction in hippocampal cholinergic neurostimulating peptide enhances memory impairment in AppNL‐G‐F KI mice

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Whether cholinergic activity in the septohippocampal network affects cognitive dysfunction via hippocampal cholinergic neurostimulating peptide (HCNP) in Alzheimer's pathogenesis remains unclear. METHODS An Alzheimer's pathogenesis by mutation in amyloid‐beta precursor protein gene (AppNL‐G‐F) knock‐in (KI) and HCNP precursor ...

A microRNA signature of toxic extrasynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor signaling

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2020
The cellular consequences of N-Methyl-D-Aspartate receptor (NMDAR) stimulation depend on the receptors’ subcellular localization. Synaptic NMDARs promote plasticity and survival whereas extrasynaptic NMDARs mediate excitotoxicity and contribute to cell ...

Extrasynaptic GABA(A) receptors and tonic inhibition in rat auditory thalamus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Neural inhibition plays an important role in auditory processing and attentional gating. Extrasynaptic GABA(A) receptors (GABA(A)R), containing α(4)and δ GABA(A)R subunits, are thought to be activated by GABA spillover outside of the synapse following ...

An iEEG investigation on sex‐specific differences in seizure duration

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 912-921, June 2026.
Abstract Objective Male people with epilepsy (mPWE) are at higher risk for bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (BTCs) and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) compared to female people with epilepsy (fPWE). Despite major clinical and personal implications, little is known about sex‐specific differences in seizure propagation and termination ...

Astrocytes and extracellular matrix in extrasynaptic volume transmission [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2014
Volume transmission is a form of intercellular communication that does not require synapses; it is based on the diffusion of neuroactive substances across the brain extracellular space (ECS) and their binding to extrasynaptic high-affinity receptors on neurons or glia.

Developmental Profiling of Structural and Functional Maturation in Mouse Corpus Callosum

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 6, June 2026.
Progressive myelin development in mouse corpus callosum is accompanied by gradual decrease in oligodendrocyte precursor cell density and increase in oligodendrocyte density. Pro‐Capase‐3 is transiently upregulated in oligodendrocyte during postnatal development.

Extrasynaptic GABAA receptors in the crosshairs of hormones and ethanol [PDF]

open access: yesNeurochemistry International, 2008
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main chemical inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. In the central nervous system (CNS) it acts on two distinct types of receptor: an ion channel, i.e., an "ionotropic" receptor permeable to Cl- and HCO3- (GABAA receptors) and a G-protein coupled "metabotropic" receptor that is linked to various effector ...

Behavioral Domain‐Specific Effects of Positive Modulation of α5 and α6 GABAA Receptors in a Rat Double‐Hit Stress Model

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
A double‐hit stress model in Sprague–Dawley rats induces alterations in motivation, motor impulsivity, and social recognition that are partially ameliorated by α5‐ and α6‐GABAA receptor modulation, suggesting domain‐specific effects of this modulation on the stress‐induced phenotype. ABSTRACT Impulsivity is an understudied area of post‐traumatic stress

GABAA receptors and neuroligin 2 synergize to promote synaptic adhesion and inhibitory synaptogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience
GABAA receptors (γ-aminobutyric acid-gated receptors type A; GABAARs), the major structural and functional postsynaptic components of inhibitory synapses in the mammalian brain, belong to a family of GABA-gated Cl−/HCO3− ion channels.
