Fig. 3. The effects of aging on protein levels of GABA_A receptor subunit ${alpha}$ ₁, β₂ and ${gamma}$ ₁ in the IC of FBN and F344 rats. The y-axis represents subunit protein percentage difference from young adult animals (3–4 months) of middle aged (18–20 months) and aged (28–32 months) in rat IC. Note that GABA_A receptor ${gamma}$ ₁ subunit protein significantly increased in aged rats of both FBN and F344. While significantly decreased ${alpha}$ ₁ subunit protein was found in the IC of aged FBN rats, it was not found in aged F344 rats (^*P<0.05). (Modified from Caspary et al., 1999.)
