## Abstract The glial water channel aquaporinβ4 (AQP4) has been hypothesized to modulate water and potassium fluxes associated with neuronal activity. In this study, we examined the seizure phenotype of AQP4 β/β mice using in vivo electrical stimulation and electroencephalographic (EEG) recording.
## Abstract Aquaporinβ4 is a water channel predominantly found in astrocytes in the central nervous system and is believed to play a critical role in the formation and maintenance of the bloodβbrain barrier and in water secretion from the brain. As enteric glial cells were found to share several si
## Abstract Ξ³βAminobutyric acid (GABA) transporters play a key role in the regulation of GABA neurotransmission. We reported previously that overexpression of the GABA transporter subtype 1 (GAT1), the major form of the GABA transporter in the CNS, led to hyperalgesia in mice. In the present study,
