GABA(A) receptor phospho-dependent modulation is regulated by phospholipase C-related inactive protein type 1, a novel protein phosphatase 1 anchoring protein [PDF]
GABA(A) receptors are critical in controlling neuronal activity. Here, we examined the role for phospholipase C-related inactive protein type 1 (PRIP-1), which binds and inactivates protein phosphatase 1alpha (PP1alpha) in facilitating GABA(A) receptor ...

Membranes and Synaptosomes Used to Investigate Synaptic GABAergic Currents in Epileptic Patients
Among the most prevalent neurological disorders, epilepsy affects about 1% of the population worldwide. We previously found, using human epileptic tissues, that GABAergic neurotransmission impairment is a key mechanism that drives the pathological ...

In vivo co-ordinated interactions between inhibitory systems to control glutamate mediated hippocampal excitability. [PDF]
We present an overview of the long-term adaptation of hippocampal neurotransmission to cholinergic and GABAergic deafferentation caused by excitotoxic lesion of the medial septum.

An electrophysiological study of the interaction between fenamate NSAIDs and the GABA(_A) receptor [PDF]
The effects of certain NSAIDs were determined on agonist-evoked responses recorded from rat neurones maintained in vitro using electrophysiological techniques. Initially, the rat isolated vagus and optic nerves were employed. Alphaxalone, pentobarbitone,

Exocytosis of ATP from astrocytes modulates phasic and tonic inhibition in the neocortex [PDF]
Communication between neuronal and glial cells is important for many brain functions. Astrocytes can modulate synaptic strength via Ca2+-stimulated release of various gliotransmitters, including glutamate and ATP. A physiological role of ATP release from

Discovery of new scaffolds for GABA(A) receptor modulators from natural origin [PDF]
Gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors are the major inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in the central nervous system (CNS). These heteropentameric transmembrane proteins act as chloride ion channel upon activation by the endogenous ligand γ-

Presynaptic actions of 4-Aminopyridine and γ-aminobutyric acid on rat sympathetic ganglia in vitro [PDF]
Responses to bath-applications of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) and -aminobutyric acid (GABA) were recorded intracellularly from neurones in the rat isolated superior cervical ganglion.

Re-Evaluation of the Ultrastructural Localization of Tonic GABA-A Receptors
Cell membrane receptors play key roles in physiological and pathological processes, yet the mechanisms governing their expression and distribution across the plasma membrane remain not completely understood. Broadly, membrane receptors can be categorized
