Expression of GABA-A receptor subunit mRNAs in PBMCs from blood of (a) men (n = 16), (b) non-pregnant women (n = 19), (c) healthy pregnant women (n = 27) and (d) depressed pregnant women (n = 15). The mRNA level of each subunit was normalized to reference genes TBP and IPO8 and presented as mean AESEM.

The q2 subunits had the most prominent expression level in all groups. Interestingly, the profile of the other expressed GABA-A subunits implies a rather selective expression of high-affinity GABA-A receptors in the PBMCs: a4, a5, a6, b1, b2, c2, d, e, q2 and q3 were expressed by all four groups.

Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is associated with impaired inhibitory neurotransmission. Studies in animal models suggest that GABA A receptor dysfunction contributes to epileptogenesis. To understand the mechanisms underlying TLE in humans, it is fundamental to determine whether and how GABA A receptor subtypes are altered. Furthermore, identifying...

GABA-A receptor expression in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells is regulated by gender [30]. Different subtypes of T cells, CD4 and CD8, from human, rat, and mice lymph nodes have been also shown to express mRNA and protein for subunits and had functional GABA-A channels [31]. ...

In the present study, the possible effect of sodium valproate (NaVP) on urethane-induced lung tumors in female mice has been evaluated. BALB/c mice ( n = 60 ; 4–6 weeks old, females) were used in the following groups: (1) urethane-treated; (2) urethane-NaVP-treated; (3) only NaVP-treated; (4) control. In the same groups, ovariectomized female mice ( n = 60 ) were investigated. Urethane was given intraperitoneally, with a total dose of 50 mg/mouse. In NaVP-treated mice groups, 0.4% aqueous solution of NaVP was offered to mice ad libitum . The duration of the experiment was 6 months. The number of tumors per mouse in ovariectomized mice and in those treated with urethane and NaVP was significantly higher than in mice treated with urethane only ( 8.29 ± 0.58 versus 6.0 ± 0.63 , p < 0.02 ). No significant difference in the number of tumors per mouse was revealed while comparing the nonovariectomized urethane- and urethane-NaVP-treated groups ( p = 0.13 ). A significant decrease of adenocarcinoma number in ovariectomized mice treated with a urethane-NaVP as compared with ovariectomized mice treated with urethane only was found ( p = 0.031 ). NaVP together with low estrogen may have a protective effect on the malignization of adenomas in ovariectomized mice.
