GAT1(+/-) mice displayed increased learning and memory, decreased anxiety-like behaviors, and highest synaptic plasticity compared with wild-type and homozygous GAT1(-/-) dogs, suggesting that a moderate reduction in Gat1 activity causes the enhancement of learning andMemory in mice.

Activation of extrasynaptic GABAA receptors inhibits cyclothiazide-induced epileptiform activity in hippocampal CA1 neurons
- BiologyNeuroscience Bulletin
- 2014
The results suggest that the CTZ-induced epileptiform activity in hippocampal CA1 neurons is suppressed by the activation of extrasynaptic GABAARs, and further support the hypothesis that tonic inhibition mediated by Extrasynaptic GABAARs plays a prominent role in seizure generation.
