Pharmacology of insect GABA receptors
Neurochemical Research, 1991A GABA-operated Cl- channel that is bicuculline-insensitive is abundant in the nervous tissue of cockroach, in housefly head preparations and thorax/abdomen preparations, and in similar preparations from several insect species. Bicuculline-insensitive GABA-operated Cl- channels, which are rare in vertebrates, possess sites of action of benzodiazepines,

Benzodiazepine interactions with GABA receptors
Neuroscience Letters, 1984Benzodiazepines (BZs) produce most, if not all, of their pharmacological actions by specifically enhancing the effects of endogenous and exogenous GABA that are mediated by GABAA receptors. This potentiation consists in an increase of the apparent affinity of GABA for increasing chloride conductance without increase in its efficacy and, on the single ...

GABA and Its Receptors in Epilepsy
2004Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain. It acts through 2 classes of receptors, GABAA receptors that are ligand-operated ion channels and the G-protein-coupled metabotropic GABAB receptors. Impairment of GABAergic transmission by genetic mutations or application of GABA receptor antagonists ...

GABA-B Receptors in Drosophila
2010Drosophila melanogaster, the "fruit fly," is being increasingly used as an experimental model in neurosciences, including neuropharmacology. The advantages of Drosophila over typical mammalian models in neuropharmacology include better access to genetic manipulation and the availability of almost unlimited numbers of experimental subjects at relatively

GABA Receptor molecules of insects
1993Receptors for 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA) have been identified in both central and peripheral nervous systems of several invertebrate phyla. To date, much of the information derived from physiological and biochemical studies on insect GABA receptors relates to GABA-gated chloride channels that show some similarities with vertebrate GABAA receptors. Like

GABA Receptors and the Pharmacology of Sleep
2017Current GABAergic sleep-promoting medications were developed pragmatically, without making use of the immense diversity of GABAA receptors. Pharmacogenetic experiments are leading to an understanding of the circuit mechanisms in the hypothalamus by which zolpidem and similar compounds induce sleep at α2βγ2-type GABAA receptors.
