- Abstract
- Postsynaptic GABAergic receptors interact with various membrane and intracellular proteins to mediate inhibitory synaptic transmission. They form structural and/or signaling synaptic protein complexes that perform a variety of postsynaptic functions. In particular, the key GABAergic synaptic scaffold, gephyrin, and its interacting partners govern downstream signaling pathways that are essential for GABAergic synapse development, transmission, and plasticity. In this review, we discuss recent researches on GABAergic synaptic signaling pathways. We also outline the main outstanding issues that need to be addressed in this field and highlight the association of dysregulated GABAergic synaptic signaling with the onset of various brain disorders. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd
