Two Distinct Populations of α1α6-Containing GABAA-Receptors in Rat Cerebellum
Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2020 GABAA receptors are pentameric GABA-gated chloride channels. The existence of 19 different subunits (six α, three β, three γ, δ, ε, θ, π, and three ρ) in mammalian systems gives rise to an enormous theoretical diversity of GABAA receptor subtypes with ...

PLoS ONE, 2015 A developmental "switch" in chloride transporters occurs in most neurons resulting in GABAA mediated hyperpolarization in the adult. However, several neuronal cell subtypes maintain primarily depolarizing responses to GABAA receptor activation.

Neurosteroid involvement in threatened preterm labour
Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism, 2021 Introduction The neurosteroid allopregnanolone modulates oxytocin expression in the brain, and its effects arise from its action on the GABAA receptor. Whether neurosteroid levels and the function of the GABAA receptor are involved in the risk of preterm

Cancer Stem Cells are Depolarized Relative to Normal Stem Cells Derived from Human Livers
Annals of Hepatology, 2017 Introduction and aim. The inability to distinguish cancer (CSCs) from normal stem cells (NSCs) has hindered attempts to identify safer, more effective therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Structural insights into opposing actions of neurosteroids on GABAA receptors
Nature Communications, 2023 γ-Aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors mediate fast inhibitory signaling in the brain and are targets of numerous drugs and endogenous neurosteroids.

Plasticity of GABAA Receptors during Pregnancy and Postpartum Period: From Gene to Function
Neural Plasticity, 2015 Pregnancy needs complex pathways that together play a role in proper growth and protection of the fetus preventing its premature loss. Changes during pregnancy and postpartum period include the manifold machinery of neuroactive steroids that plays a ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background SOX1 antibody‐positive paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) exhibit significant population‐specific clinical heterogeneity. While Western cohorts predominantly manifest Lambert‐Eaton myasthenic syndrome (65%–80%), comprehensive clinical characterization and treatment response data in Asian populations remain critically ...
