Evaluation of a tetrazolium-based semiautomated colorimetric assay: assessment of chemosensitivity testing.

abstract：:Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) functions primarily as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mature central nervous system, and GABA/GABA receptors are also present in nonneural tissues, including cancer, but their precise function in nonneuronal or cancerous cells has thus far been poorly defined. Through the genome-w...
