Role of GABAB receptors in learning and memory and neurological disorders

CF Heaney, JW Kinney - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2016 - Elsevier
Although it is evident from the literature that altered GABA B receptor function does affect
behavior, these results often do not correspond well. These differences could be due to the …
