GABA and hippocampal inhibition

D R Curtis et al. Br J Pharmacol. 1970 Dec.

Abstract

Bicuculline, a specific GABA antagonist, diminishes basket cell inhibition of hippocampal pyramidal neurones, an inhibition which is not affected by strychnine.The inhibitory transmitter released by basket cells is thus probably GABA.
