This mini-review attempts to update experimental evidence on the existence of GABAA
receptor pharmacological subtypes and to produce a list of those native receptors that exist …

The GABAA receptor is the main inhibitory receptor in the brain and its subunits originate
from different genes or gene families (α1–α6, β1–β3, γ1–γ3, δ, ε, θ, π, or ρ1–3). In the mouse …

Because of its control of spike-timing and oscillatory network activity, γ-aminobutyric acid
(GABA)-ergic inhibition is a key element in the central regulation of somatic and mental …

Gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian
central nervous system, plays a key role in the regulation of neuronal transmission …

Neuronal mechanisms underlying alcohol intoxication are unclear. We find that alcohol
impairs motor coordination by enhancing tonic inhibition mediated by a specific subtype of …

According to the rules of GABAA receptor (GABAAR) subunit assembly, α4 and α6 subunits
are considered to be the natural partners of δ subunits. These GABAARs are a preferred …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly. Research
focused on identifying compounds that restore cognition and memory in AD patients is a …

For almost three decades now, the GABAergic synapse has been the focus of intense study
for its putative role in mediating many of the behavioral consequences associated with acute …

Alcohol intoxication alters coordination and motor skills, and this is responsible for a
significant number of traffic accident-related deaths around the world. Although the precise …

Hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells, which receive γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) ergic input
from at least 18 types of presynaptic neuron, express 14 subunits of the pentameric GABAA …
