Abstract：
:A competitive RT-PCR assay was used to quantify the expression of the GABA(A) receptor beta(1), beta(2) and beta(3) isoform mRNA transcripts in the superior frontal cortex and motor cortex of 21 control and 22 alcoholic cases. A single set of primers was designed that permitted amplification of all three transcripts and the internal standard simultaneously; differentiation of the individual transcripts was achieved by restriction enzyme digestion. Construction of a standard curve, using the internal standard and a concentration range of beta(2) cRNA-enabled quantitation of mRNA expression levels. No significant difference in mRNA expression was found between the control and alcoholic case groups in either the superior frontal or motor cortex for the beta(2) or beta(3) isoforms. A significant interaction was found between isoform and area, although, the two case groups did not partition on this measure. The interaction was due to a significant difference between superior frontal and motor cortex for the beta(3) isoform; this regional comparison was not significant for beta(2) mRNA. Age at death and post-mortem delay (PMD) had no significant effect on beta mRNA expression in either case group in either region. A beta(1) signal could not be detected in the RT-PCR assay.
