Example sentences for: muscimol
How can you use “muscimol” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Furthermore, muscimol inhibited dye-transfer between neurons in the SCN culture in a dose-dependent fashion, so that GABA might have reduced gap junction communication between SCN neurons via the GABAA receptor [ 14 ] . In that study they could not clarify how the activation of a GABAA receptor and subsequent increase in chloride conductance impact gap junctions.
Depolarization propagation was also inhibited by muscimol, a GABA A receptor agonist, in a dose dependent manner, and inhibition was reversed by bicuculline, a GABA A receptor antagonist.
Work in this laboratory has shown lags in neuromuscular development associated with excessive zinc exposure during neural tube formation and, possibly, accompanying narrowing of the vertebral arches [ 26 ] . Another curious finding of this study is that widening of the vertebral arch occurs with either the GABAa agonist muscimol or the antagonist bicuculline.
While the GABAa agonist muscimol and antagonist bicucullin widened the vertebral arch, as did the GABAb agonist baclofen, the GABAb antagonist hydroxysaclofen narrowed the vertebral arch.
Muscimol is a well-documented specific and potent GABAa agonist [ 33 ] .
