Ethanol-induced Sedative Behavior: An Assay to Investigate Increased Dopamine Signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans

Authors: Anuradha Singh, Kavita Babu and Pratima Pandey, date: 07/05/2021, view: 1099, Q&A: 0

Dopamine (DA) signaling affects locomotion, feeding, learning, and memory in C. elegans. Various assays have been developed to study the proteins involved in these behaviors; however, these assays show behavioral output only when there is a drastic

Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced Convulsion Assay to Determine GABAergic Defects in Caenorhabditis elegans

Authors: Shruti Thapliyal and Kavita Babu, date: 09/05/2018, view: 3958, Q&A: 0

Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) is a GABA_A receptor antagonist and is used to monitor presynaptic defects in the release of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. PTZ is a competitive inhibitor of GABA, and prevents binding of GABA on the GABA_A ...
