Popis: The influence of GABA receptor agonists on the terminal differentiation in vitro of dopaminergic (DA) neurons derived from IPS cells was investigated. GABA-A agonist muscimol induced transient elevation of intracellular Ca2+ level ([Ca2+] i ) in the investigated cells at days 5 to 21 of differentiation. Differentiation of cells in the presence of muscimol reduced tyrosine hydroxylase expression. Thus, the presence of active GABA-A receptors, associated with phenotype determination via Ca2+-signalling was demonstrated in differentiating human DA neurons.
