12614680 Vale C, Fonfria E, Bujons J, Messeguer A, Rodriguez-Farre E, Sunol C: The organochlorine pesticides gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (lindane), alpha-endosulfan and dieldrin differentially interact with GABA (A) and glycine-gated chloride channels in primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells. Neuroscience. 2003;117(2):397-403.

Lindane inhibited with similar potency both GABA (A) (IC (50): 6.1 microM) and glycine (5.0 microM) receptors. alpha-Endosulfan and dieldrin inhibited the GABA (A) receptor (IC (50) values: 0.4 microM and 0.2 microM, respectively) more potently than the glycine receptor (IC (50) values: 3.5 microM and 3 microM, respectively).

Specific binding of [(3) H] EBOB was determined for 20-microm brain sections as the difference in labeling on incubation with 2 nM [(3) H] EBOB either alone (total binding) or with 5 microM alpha-endosulfan (nonspecific binding).
AVM increased [(3) H] EBOB binding in most regions and was the only one of the three agents inhibiting in vitro [(3) H] strychnine binding to the glycine receptor.
