The Regulatory Properties of α5 Subunit-Containing γ-Aminobutyric Acid Subtype A Receptors in Learning and Synaptic Plasticity

Synaptic plasticity, which is thought to represent the neuronal substrate for learning and memory is influenced by the degree of GABAergic inhibitory tone. In particular, γ-aminobutyric acid subtype A receptors (GABAARs), which mediate the majority of inhibitory neurotransmission in the mammalian br...
