The effects of midazolam and sevoflurane on the GABA receptors with alternatively spliced variants of the γ2 subunit

BackgroundEmergence agitation after sevoflurane anesthesia in children can be prevented by midazolam. Alternative splicing of the GABAA receptor changes with age. Therefore, we hypothesized that alternative splicing of the γ2 subunit affects the GABA current when applying sevoflurane and midazolam.M...
