Altered synaptic clustering of GABAA receptors in mice lacking dystrophin (mdx mice)
1 Dec 1999
Abstract excerpt
Dystrophin is selectively localized in the postsynaptic density of neurons in cerebral cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum. Here, we show by double-immunofluorescence staining that dystrophin is extensively colocalized with GABAA receptor subunit clusters in these brain regions. To determine the relevance of this observation, we investigated in mdx mice, which provide a model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy,...
