Prenatal stress increased γ2 GABAA receptor subunit gene expression in hippocampus and potentiated pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure in rats
Objective(s): Stress during pregnancy is able to bring extensive effects on neurobehavioral development in offspring. The GABAergic system plays a pivotal role in neuronal excitability, which can be affected by prenatal stress (PS). This study aimed to evaluate impact of the PS on γ2 subunit of gamma-aminobutyric acid A (GABAA) receptor gene expression in the hippocamp...
متن کاملEpigenetic Regulation in Substance Use Disorders
Substance use disorder is a chronic condition of compulsive drug seeking and use that is mediated by stable changes in central reward pathways. Repeated use of abused drugs causes persistent alterations in gene expression responsible for the long-term behavioral and structural changes. Recently, it has been suggested that epigenetic mechanisms are responsible in part for these drug-induced chan...
متن کاملTemporal Regulation of GABAA Receptor Subunit Expression: Role in Synaptic and Extrasynaptic Communication in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus
Recent molecular studies suggest that the expression levels of δ and γ2 GABAA receptor (GABAAR) subunits regulate the balance between synaptic and extrasynaptic GABA neurotransmission in multiple brain regions. We investigated the expression of GABAAδ and GABAAγ2 and the functional significance of a change in balance between these subunits in a robust local GABA network contained within the sup...
متن کاملLamina-specific expression and activity-dependent regulation of seven GABAA receptor subunit mRNAs in monkey visual cortex.
Seven monkey-specific GABAA receptor subunit cDNAs were isolated and cloned; radioactive cDNA and cRNA probes derived from them were used for Northern blot analysis and in situ hybridization histochemistry of the primary visual cortex (area 17), with comparative observations on other cortical areas. cDNAs corresponding to alpha 1, alpha 2, alpha 4, alpha 5, beta 1, beta 2, and gamma 2 GABAA rec...
متن کاملSexual Risk Behaviors and Condom Use Barriers in Iranian Men with Substance Use Disorders
Background: We aimed to investigate risky sexual behaviors (RSBs) and condom use barriers in Iranian men with substance use disorders (SUDs).Methods: Of the total 1800 outpatient drug free (ODF) and methadone maintenance treatment program (MMTP) active centers in Tehran, Iran, six were selected to participate in the current study. Data were collected (n = 300 men) using three questionnaires inc...
