Trichloroethanol modulation of recombinant GABAA, glycine and GABA rho 1 receptorsM D Krasowski
Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care, University of Chicago, Illinois, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 284:934-42. 1998..In summary, trichloroethanol modulation of GABAA, glycine and GABA rho 1 receptors shares some, but not all, features in common with the requirements for modulation by n-alkanols and volatile anesthetics...
Propofol and other intravenous anesthetics have sites of action on the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor distinct from that for isofluraneM D Krasowski
Department of Committee on Neurobiology, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA
Mol Pharmacol 53:530-8. 1998..These data indicate that the receptor structural requirements for positive modulation by volatile and intravenous general anesthetics may be quite distinct...

Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Neuropharmacology 41:952-64. 2001..This suggests that mutation of M286 in the GABA(A) beta(2) subunit alters the dimensions of a 'binding pocket' for propofol and related alkylphenol general anesthetics...
General anesthetic potencies of a series of propofol analogs correlate with potency for potentiation of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) current at the GABA(A) receptor but not with lipid solubilityM D Krasowski
Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, USA
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 297:338-51. 2001..These data suggest steric constraints for the binding site for propofol on the GABA(A) receptor...

Committee on Neurobiology, University of Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Neurosci Lett 240:81-4. 1998..We also utilize the subunit selective pharmacology of Zn2+ and the anticonvulsant drug loreclezole to help infer the presence of beta2 and gamma subunits in the GABA(A) receptors remaining in neurons from beta3-/- mice...
