Contrary to its effect on the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A and C receptors, picrotoxin antagonism of the alpha1 homomeric glycine receptors (GlyRs) has been shown to be non-use-dependent and nonselective between the picrotoxin components picrotoxinin and picrotin. Picrotoxin antagonism of

The dihydropyridines (DHPs), nifedipine and nicardipine, modulate native glycine receptors (GlyRs) at micromolar concentrations. Nicardipine has a biphasic potentiating and inhibitory effect, whereas nifedipine causes inhibition only. The present study sought to investigate (1) the molecular mechanism by which these

Picrotoxin, an antagonist of structurally-rated GABA(A) receptors (GABA(A)Rs) and glycine receptors (GlyRs), is an equimolar mixture of picrotoxinin (PTXININ) and picrotin (PTN). These compounds share a common structure except that PTN contains a slightly larger dimethylmethanol in place of the

GABA receptor antagonists produce an unexpectedly significant inhibition of native glycine receptors in retina and in alpha1 or alpha2 homomeric glycine receptors (GlyRs) expressed in HEK 293 cells. In this study we evaluate this phenomenon in heteromeric glycine receptors, formed
