Colocalization of GABA, glycine, and their receptors at synapses in the rat spinal cord
Open accessAbstract
To determine whether GABA and glycine can act as cotransmitters at synapses in the rat spinal cord, we have compared the ultrastructural distribution of GABAA-receptor beta 3 subunit with that of the glycine receptor-associated protein gephyrin and combined this with postembedding detection of GABA and glycine. We also used a dual- immunofluorescence method to confirm that gephyrin was associated with the glycine-receptor alpha 1 subunit throughout the cord. GABAA beta 3- subunit immunoreactivity was restricted primarily to synapses, and at a majority of these synapses the presynaptic axon was GABA- immunoreactive. Many synapses showed both GABAA beta 3 and gephyrin immunoreactivity, and at most of these synapses GABA and glycine were enriched in the presynaptic axon. These results strongly support the idea that cotransmission by GABA and glycine occurs in the spinal cord.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
