Beta 2-adrenoreceptors stimulate c-fos transcription through multiple cyclic AMP- and Ca(2+)-responsive elements in cerebellar granular neurons.

abstract：:Some data on the concentration range of response and the concentration for half-response (EC50) of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) for the GABAA receptor are reviewed and compared. An analysis of the 36Cl- flux assay demonstrates that both the EC50 and the slope of a Hill plot depend on the ion influx or efflux assay t...
