Astrocytic GABA receptors

Glia, 1994
AbstractGABA receptors are distributed widely throughout the central nervous system on a variety of cell types. It has become increasingly clear that astrocytes, both in cell culture and tissue slices, express abundant GABAA receptors. In astrocytes, GABA activates Cl−‐specific channels that are modulated by barbiturates and benzodiazepines; however ...

The ‘ABC’ of GABA receptors

Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2000
In the conventional view, GABA acts at either ionotropic GABAA or metabotropic GABAB receptors. Recently, novel ionotropic GABA receptors that are composed of rho-subunits have been identified in the vertebrate retina. These bicuculline- and baclofen-insensitive GABA receptors are frequently called GABAC, following an early suggestion by Graham ...

Occurrence of GABA and GABA receptors in human spermatozoa

Molecular Human Reproduction, 1998
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) concentrations in seminal plasma and washed spermatozoa from normal donors were assessed by a sensitive radioreceptor assay, and were detectable in both fractions. Specific binding of [3H]-muscimol was shown to be dependent on protein concentration, temperature and incubation time.

Phospholipids and the Gaba Receptor

1976
Much interest has been focused on the role of phospholipids in the nervous system. For example, it has been suggested that these are intimately involved in the cholinergic receptor. De Robertis and his colleagues isolated proteolipids from mammalian nerve ending membranes and showed that they have a high affinity for d-tubocurarine and.
