Analysis of β-Subunit-dependent GABAA Receptor Modulation and Behavioral Effects of Valerenic Acid Derivatives
Valerenic acid (VA)-a β2/3-selective GABA type A (GABAA) receptor modulator-displays anxiolytic and anticonvulsive effects in mice devoid of sedation, making VA an interesting drug candidate. Here we analyzed β-subunit-dependent enhancement of GABA-induced chloride currents (IGABA) by a library of VA derivatives and studied their effects on pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizure threshold and...
متن کاملthe differential effects of debate and media analysis as relate to enhancing efl learners critical thinking ability and writing performances
critical thinking ability has an important role in education. accordingly, scholars around the world are searching for new ways for teaching and improving students critical thinking ability. in line with the studies in efl contexts supporting the positive relationship between critical thinking and writing performances, this study investigated the differential effects of halverson’s critical thi...
15 صفحه اولthe effects of planning on accuracy and complexity of iranian efl students’ written narrative task performance
this study compared the different effects of form-focused guided planning vs. meaning-focused guided planning on iranian pre-intermediate students’ task performance. the study lasted for three weeks and concentrated on eight english structures. forty five pre-intermediate iranian students were randomly assigned to three groups of guided planning focus-on-form group (gpfg), guided planning focus...
15 صفحه اولContext Dependent Benzodiazepine Modulation of GABAA Receptor Opening Frequency
The anxiolytic, hypnotic, and anti-convulsant properties of benzodiazepines (BDZs) require modulation of distinct GABA(A) receptor alpha-subtypes. BDZ modulation of GABA(A) receptors is often described in terms of increased opening frequency, and contrasted with the increased open durations occurring with barbiturate modulation. Several studies spanning single channel, rapid kinetic, and whole ...
متن کاملEffects of gamma2S subunit incorporation on GABAA receptor macroscopic kinetics.
GABA(A) receptors, the major inhibitory neurotransmitter receptors in the mammalian central nervous system, are heteropentameric proteins. We are interested in understanding the contribution of the gamma subunit to the kinetic properties of GABA(A) receptors. Studies in Xenopus oocytes have suggested that co-expression of alpha1, beta2, and gamma 2S subunits results in the formation of both alp...
