The Functional Role of Spontaneously Opening GABAA Receptors in Neural Transmission
Ionotropic type of γ-aminobutyric acid receptors (GABAARs) produce two forms of inhibitory signaling: phasic inhibition generated by rapid efflux of neurotransmitter GABA into the synaptic cleft with subsequent binding to GABAARs, and tonic inhibition generated by persistent activation of extrasynap...
