Control of neuronal nitric oxide synthase and brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels by GABA-A receptors in the developing rat cortex

, 2003
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) plays an important morphogenetic role, acting through GABA-A receptors, which are depolarizing in the developing rat brain.

γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors modulate neurosteroid binding to the voltage-dependent anion channel

Acta Chimica Slovenica
Neurosteroids modulate the function of γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors in the brain. We showed that GABAA receptors modulate neurosteroid interactions with VDAC. GABA enhanced [3H]6-AziP labeling of VDAC in a concentration-dependent manner.

The involvement of GABA-rho receptors in regulating ethanol-induced elevation of dopamine, glycine and taurine within the nucleus accumbens of Wistar rats

Frontiers in Pharmacology
IntroductionAlcohol use disorder (AUD) causes significant morbidity and mortality globally. Ethanol’s rewarding and reinforcing effects are attributed to activation of the mesolimbic dopamine system, increasing accumbal dopamine release. While activation

Azo-propofols: photochromic potentiators of GABA(A) receptors

, 2012
Shine and rise! GABA(A) receptors are ligand-gated chloride ion channels that respond to γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the mammalian central nervous system.

The major central endocannabinoid directly acts at GABA(A) receptors

, 2011
GABA(A) receptors are the major ionotropic inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors. The endocannabinoid system is a lipid signaling network that modulates different brain functions. Here we show a direct molecular interaction between the two systems.

Plasticity of GABAB receptor-mediated heterosynaptic interactions at mossy fibers after status epilepticus [PDF]

, 2003
Several neurotransmitters, including GABA acting at presynaptic GABAB receptors, modulate glutamate release at synapses between hippocampal mossy fibers and CA3 pyramidal neurons.

Recombinant glycine receptors: stoichiometry and kinetics [PDF]

, 2009
Glycine receptors (GlyR) are anion-permeable channels that belong to the pentameric ligand-gated ion channel family. Different GlyR subtypes are known. The main synaptic form is thought to be α1β heteropentamers which mediate fast synaptic inhibition in ...

The P2X receptor mediated regulation of inhibitory synaptic transmission [PDF]

In the central nervous system ATP can be released by neurons and glial cells through similar pathways as other neurotransmitters. Extracellular ATP targets P2X purinoreceptors, causing an influx of Ca2+ ions which transmit very important messages for ...
