Evidence for GABA sub(B)-receptors on cultured astrocytes of rat CNS: Autoradiographic binding studies

The cellular localization of GABA-binding sites was studied in explant cultures of rat cerebellum, brain stem and spinal cord by means of autoradiography. It is suggested that astrocytes possess GABA sub(B)-receptors but there is little evidence for the existence of GABA sub(A)-sites on glial elemen...

Zusammenfassung:The cellular localization of GABA-binding sites was studied in explant cultures of rat cerebellum, brain stem and spinal cord by means of autoradiography. It is suggested that astrocytes possess GABA sub(B)-receptors but there is little evidence for the existence of GABA sub(A)-sites on glial elements.
