Absence of γ‐aminobutyric acid‐a receptor potentiation in central hypersomnolence disorders

Abstract

Using the Xenopus oocyte assay, we found an absence of GABA-A receptor potentiation with CSF from patients with central hypersomnolence disorders, with no significant differences between hypocretin-deficient and non-hypocretin-deficient patients compared to controls. Ann Neurol 2016;80:259-268.
