title: Autoradiographic visualization of the GABA-A receptor agonist, 3H-muscimol in the rat uterus.
abstract: In the present study the distribution of specific binding sites for the GABA-A receptor agonist, 3H-muscimol, was studied in the rat uterus using an autoradiographic technique. Specific binding sites were present in both myometrium and endometrium suggesting a dual role for GABA in this organ.
