Abstract excerpt
AIMS: We compared the antagonistic effects of state-dependent gamma-aminobutyric acid A (GABA(A)) receptor blockers picrotoxin, Zn(2+) and pregnenolone sulphate (PS) on GABA- and pentobarbital-activated currents in recombinant rat GABA(A) receptors in Xenopus oocytes. METHODS: Experiments were performed with wild type rat alpha1 beta2 gamma2L and alpha1beta2 receptors, mutants alpha1V256S beta2 gamma2L and...
