Hyperthermia decreases GABAergic synaptic transmission in hippocampal neurons of immature rats

The mechanisms underlying the generation of febrile seizures are poorly understood. We suggest that high temperature contributes to febrile seizures and specifically tested the hypothesis that hyperthermia suppressed GABAA-receptor-mediated inhibition in hippocampal neurons using whole-cell patch cl...
