Ectopic expression of the GABA sub(A) receptor alpha 6 subunit in hippocampal pyramidal neurons produces extrasynaptic receptors and an increased tonic inhibition

We generated transgenic (Thy1 alpha 6) mice in which the GABA sub(A) receptor alpha 6 subunit, whose expression is usually confined to granule cells of cerebellum and cochlear nuclei, is ectopically expressed under the control of the pan-neuronal Thy-1.2 promoter. Strong Thy1 alpha 6 subunit express...
