Response to sensory stimuli and seizure genesis has been linked to nicotinic mechanisms<ref>PMID: 8478687</ref>, which are mediated by two major classes of receptors: Ganglionic type, and neuromuscular type, which pharmacological analysis of seizure genesis and habituation in the rat brain is thought to be mediated by the latter type <ref>PMID: 2813485</ref>. α-BGT demonstrates this relationship due to its prominent binding in the CA3 region of the hippocampus <ref>PMID: 626914</ref>. | Response to sensory stimuli and seizure genesis has been linked to nicotinic mechanisms<ref>PMID: 8478687</ref>, which are mediated by two major classes of receptors: Ganglionic type, and neuromuscular type, which pharmacological analysis of seizure genesis and habituation in the rat brain is thought to be mediated by the latter type <ref>PMID: 2813485</ref>. α-BGT demonstrates this relationship due to its prominent binding in the CA3 region of the hippocampus <ref>PMID: 626914</ref>. | ||
