| Research Abstract |
To reveal the GABAergic roles in development, regeneration and maintenance of plasticity in the nervous system, we examined the changes in expression and localization of various molecules involved in GABAergic transmission. Excitatory action of GABA might play important roles in development of nervous system except for anterior horn of spinal cord, regeneration of the hypoglossal nerve, and maintenance of plasticity in the somatosensory cortex.
