The postnatal ontogeny of neurons containing different GABAA receptor beta (beta 1, beta 2 and beta 3) subunit mRNAs were examined in the rat thalamus using in situ hybridization histochemistry. Neurons containing beta 1 or beta 2 subunit mRNA developed remarkably postnatally, while most neurons were already strongly labeled with beta 3 probe at birth. However, beta 3 subunit mRNA decreased rapidly after birth, few cells being labeled with this probe at day 35 and thereafter. |
