Opposite effects of inhibitory and excitatory neurosteroids on [3H]dopamine release from rat nucleus accumbens.
Neurosteroids with GABAA receptor antagonistic properties increase K(+)-evoked [3H]dopamine release from rat nucleus accumbens slices, whereas neurosteroid positive modulators of GABAA exert an opposite effect.
