RECEPTORS, GABA-B

Specialty Definition: RECEPTORS, GABA-B

DomainDefinition

Health

Cell surface proteins which bind GABA and influence cells via interactions with G-proteins. GABA-B receptors are pharmacologically characterized by their insensitivity to the blocker bicuculline and sensitivity to the agonist L-baclofen. They are found both presynaptically and postsynaptically, and act variously by inhibition of adenylate cyclase, activation of phospholipase A2, activation of potassium channels, and inactivation of voltage-activated calcium channels.
