摘要：
Brain function is based on an exquisite balance between excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmission. GABAergic neurons provide the major inhibitory control. By controlling spike timing and sculpting neuronal rhythms they play a key role in regulating behavior. GABAergic neurons are highly diverse and operate with a corresponding diversity of GABA(A) receptor subtypes. In this article, the contribution of GABA(A) receptor deficits to central nervous system disorders, in particular anxiety disorders, epilepsy, schizophrenia and insomnia, is reviewed.
