“…Increased GABA A receptor subunit expressions in the cerebral cortex of Low-LG males, as we observed, suggest a positive relationship between GABA A receptor expression and sensitivity to ethanol-induced hypnosis (Carlson, Bohnsack, & Morrow, 2016; Carlson, Bohnsack, Patel, & Morrow, 2016; Carlson, Kumar, Werner, Comerford, & Morrow, 2013; Kumar et al, 2012; Kumar et al, 2010). The difference in GABA A receptor subunit expression between Low- and High-LG males may be related to differences in circulating steroid levels.…”
