The relationship between magnetic and electrophysiological responses to complex tactile stimuli.

abstract：BACKGROUND:GABAA receptor-mediated neurotransmission is greatly influenced by cation-chloride cotransporter activity during developmental stages. In embryonic neurons Na-K-2Cl (NKCC1) cotransporters mediate active chloride uptake, thus increasing the intracellular chloride concentration associated with GABA-induced dep...
