Voltage Clamp Electrophysiology Screening Of Selected Compounds From Zizyphus Mauritiana And Myristica Fragrans On Specific GABA Receptors

This study focused on the effects of the methanol crude extract of Zizyphus mauritiana leaves and the essential oil of the mesocarp of Myristica fragrans on the function of GABA (A) receptors. Both crude and essential oil were tested on the Xenopus laevis oocytes that comprised of GABA (A) receptors...
