Expression Levels of the GABAA Subunit Genes in B6 and C3 Mice
| Region of brain | Mouse strain | Expression level, mean ± se (n = 6) | |||
| α1 subunit | α3 subunit | β2 subunit | |||
| Frontal cortex | B6 | 0.63 ± 0.06 | 0.87 ± 0.12 | 0.99 ± 0.20 | |
| C3 | 0.73 ± 0.04 | 1.03 ± 0.12 | 1.30 ± 0.36 | ||
| Hippocampus | B6 | 0.18 ± 0.05 | 0.08 ± 0.03 | 0.27 ± 0.04 | |
| C3 | 0.20 ± 0.02 | 0.11 ± 0.03 | 0.27 ± 0.09 | ||
-
The expression level of each gene is normalized to that of the GAPDH gene.
