Encoding of compressive stress during indentation by slowly adapting type I mechanoreceptors in rat hairy skin.

abstract：:Glycinergic and GABAergic inhibition are juxtaposed at one retinal synaptic layer yet likely perform different functions. These functions have usually been evaluated using receptor antagonists. In examining retinal glycine receptors, we were surprised to find that commonly used concentrations of GABA antagonists block...
