Here, we studied the pathogenesis of memory loss associated with inflammation and found that we could reverse memory deficits by pharmacologically inhibiting α5-subunit-containing γ-aminobutyric acid type A (α5GABA<sub>A</sub>) receptors and deleting the gene associated with the α5 subunit. Acute inflammation reduces long-term potentiation, a synaptic correlate of memory, in hippocampal slices from wild-type mice, and this reduction was reversed by inhibition of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor function. A tonic inhibitory current generated by α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in hippocampal neurons was increased by the key proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β through a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway. Interleukin-1β also increased the surface expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in the hippocampus. Collectively, these results show that α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor activity increases during inflammation and that this increase is critical for inflammation-induced memory deficits.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Abramian, Am" uniqKey="Abramian A">AM Abramian</name></author><author><name

Here, we studied the pathogenesis of memory loss associated with inflammation and found that we could reverse memory deficits by pharmacologically inhibiting α5-subunit-containing γ-aminobutyric acid type A (α5GABA<sub>A</sub>) receptors and deleting the gene associated with the α5 subunit. Acute inflammation reduces long-term potentiation, a synaptic correlate of memory, in hippocampal slices from wild-type mice, and this reduction was reversed by inhibition of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor function. A tonic inhibitory current generated by α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in hippocampal neurons was increased by the key proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β through a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway. Interleukin-1β also increased the surface expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in the hippocampus. Collectively, these results show that α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor activity increases during inflammation and that this increase is critical for inflammation-induced memory deficits.</p></abstract></article-meta></front><body><sec sec-type="intro" id="S1"><title>INTRODUCTION</title><p id="P2">Acute systemic inflammation caused by a variety of disorders, including autoimmune diseases, infection, traumatic brain injury, and stroke, can lead to memory loss (<xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">Dantzer et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">Di-Filippo et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="R22" ref-type="bibr">Kipnis et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>). Such memory loss manifests as impaired explicit recall in humans, and deficiencies of fear-associated memory and reduced performance for object-recognition tasks in laboratory animals (<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>). Inflammation also contributes to chronic neurodegenerative diseases that are characterized by memory loss, including Alzheimer disease, Parkinson disease, multiple sclerosis, and even AIDS-related dementia (<xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">Di Filippo et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="R22" ref-type="bibr">Kipnis et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>).</p><p id="P3">Systemic inflammation increases the production of multiple cytokines in the brain, including interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and IL-6 (<xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">Dantzer et al., 2008</xref>; <xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>). In particular, elevated levels of IL-1β are known to contribute to inflammation-induced memory deficits. For example, in patients with sepsis-associated encephalopathy, increased plasma levels of IL-1β were correlated with cognitive deficits (<xref rid="R37" ref-type="bibr">Serantes et al., 2006</xref>). In another study, elderly people with a genetic variant of the IL-1β-converting enzyme that produces lower levels of IL-1β exhibited better cognitive performance than the general aged population (<xref rid="R41" ref-type="bibr">Trompet et al., 2008</xref>). In laboratory animals that underwent orthopedic surgery, elevated levels of IL-1β in the hippocampus were strongly correlated with memory deficits (<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">Cibelli et al., 2010</xref>). Furthermore, it was shown that memory deficits associated with elevated levels of IL-1b were typically hippocampus dependent, whereas hippo-campus-independent memory was spared (<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>).</p><p id="P4">The mechanisms underlying inflammation-induced memory deficits are not well understood. Changes involving multiple neurotransmitter receptors have been demonstrated, including a reduction in <italic>N</italic>-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activity, alterations in the trafficking and phosphorylation of 2-amino-3-(5-methyl-3-oxo-1,2-oxazol-4-yl)propanoic acid receptors, and activation of the α7 subtype of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (<xref rid="R39" ref-type="bibr">Stellwagen et al., 2005</xref>; <xref rid="R40" ref-type="bibr">Terrando et al., 2011</xref>; <xref rid="R42" ref-type="bibr">Viviani et al., 2003</xref>). However, despite a long history of investigation, no treatments that effectively reverse or prevent the memory deficits associated with inflammation are available. General inhibition of the inflammatory response and specific blocking of IL-1β activity by inhibiting the membrane-bound type 1 IL-1 receptors are impractical approaches because of the risks of infection and delayed wound healing (<xref rid="R17" ref-type="bibr">Fleischmann et al., 2006</xref>). Moreover, low basal levels of IL-1β in the hippocampus play a physiological role in maintaining normal memory performance (<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>). Thus, identification of additional down-stream mediators of inflammation that induce memory loss is necessary for the development of effective treatments.</p><p id="P5">The inhibitory neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a powerful regulator of learning, memory, and synaptic plasticity (<xref rid="R10" ref-type="bibr">Collinson et al., 2002</xref>). GABA type A (GABA<sub>A</sub>) receptors generate two distinct forms of inhibition: phasic, fast inhibitory postsynaptic currents and a tonic form of inhibition that is primarily mediated by extrasynaptic GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors (<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">Brickley and Mody, 2012</xref>; <xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">Glykys and Mody, 2007</xref>; <xref rid="R28" ref-type="bibr">Luscher et al., 2011</xref>). In the CA1 subfield of the hippocampus, a tonic inhibitory conductance is generated mainly by the α5-subunit-containing subtype of GABA<sub>A</sub> (α5GABA<sub>A</sub>) receptors (<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">Caraiscos et al., 2004</xref>), which are likely composed of α5b3γ2 subunits (<xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">Burgard et al., 1996</xref>; <xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">Glykys and Mody, 2007</xref>; <xref rid="R20" ref-type="bibr">Ju et al., 2009</xref>). Drugs that increase α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor activity cause profound memory blockade (<xref rid="R7" ref-type="bibr">Cheng et al., 2006</xref>; <xref rid="R31" ref-type="bibr">Martin et al., 2009</xref>). Conversely, a reduction in the expression or function of this receptor improves performance for certain memory tasks (<xref rid="R10" ref-type="bibr">Collinson et al., 2002</xref>; <xref rid="R32" ref-type="bibr">Martin et al., 2010</xref>). Here, using a combination of behavioral studies, electro-physiological recordings, and biochemical methods together with genetic and pharmacological tools, we sought to determine whether increased α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor activity contributes to inflammation-induced memory deficits. The results of these studies show that α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors are critical downstream mediators of inflammation-induced memory deficits.</p></sec><sec sec-type="results" id="S2"><title>RESULTS</title><sec id="S3"><title>α5GABA<sub>A</sub> Receptors Regulate Inflammation-Induced Impairment of Contextual Fear Memory</title><p id="P6">We first investigated the role of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in inflammation-induced deficits using a fear-associated memory paradigm (<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">Fanselow and Poulos, 2005</xref>). Wild-type (WT) and α5-subunit null mutant (<italic>Gabra5</italic>−/−) mice were treated with IL-1β (1 μg kg<sup>−1</sup>, i.p.) to mimic acute systemic inflammation (<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>). Three hours after treatment, the mice were trained to associate an electric foot shock (unconditioned stimulus) with an environmental context and a tone (conditioned stimuli). To study contextual fear memory, which is hippocampus dependent (<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">Fanselow and Poulos, 2005</xref>), we reexposed the mice to the same environmental context 24 hr after training. To study cued fear memory in response to tone, which is hippocampus independent (<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">Fanselow and Poulos, 2005</xref>), we reexposed the mice to the tone after training. The percentage of time that each mouse spent freezing in the same context or in response to the tone was used to assess memory. IL-1β-treated WT mice showed impairment of contextual fear memory, as evidenced by lower freezing scores compared with vehicle-treated controls (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1A</xref>; n = 14–16; two-way analysis of variance [ANOVA], effect of IL-1β, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,56)</sub> = 5.60, p = 0.02; effect of geno-type, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,56)</sub> = 0.07, p = 0.79; effect of interaction, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,56)</sub> = 2.86, p = 0.10; Bonferroni post hoc test, p < 0.05), as shown previously (<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>). In contrast, <italic>Gabra5−/−</italic> mice treated with IL-1β exhibited no memory deficits (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1A</xref>; n = 14–16; Bonferroni post hoc test, p > 0.05).</p><p id="P7">To determine whether pharmacological inhibition of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors would prevent the memory deficit, we studied the effects of two benzodiazepine inverse agonists that preferentially inhibit α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors (<xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">Atack et al., 2009</xref>; <xref rid="R36" ref-type="bibr">Quirk et al., 1996</xref>). At 30 min before fear conditioning, the mice were treated with either L-655,708 [ethyl (13aS)-7-methoxy-9-oxo-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,5-α]pyrrolo[2,1-c] [1,4]benzodiazepine-1-carboxylate] (0.35 or 0.5 mg kg<sup>−1</sup>, i.p.) or MRK-016 [3-tert-butyl-7-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)-2-(1-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylmethoxy)-pyrazolo[1,5-d][1,2,4]triazine] (3 mg kg<sup>−1</sup>, i.p.). Of note, under baseline conditions, L-655,708 does not modify contextual fear memory in WT or <italic>Gabra5−/−</italic> mice (<xref rid="R32" ref-type="bibr">Martin et al., 2010</xref>). However, L-655,708 reversed the contextual fear memory deficits induced by IL-1β in WT mice (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1B</xref>; n = 11; Student's t test, <italic>t</italic> = 2.0, p = 0.03). Similarly, another inverse agonist that is structurally distinct from L-655,708, MRK-016, attenuated the contextual fear memory deficits induced by IL-1β in WT mice (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1B</xref>; n = 16; Student's t test, <italic>t</italic> = 2.1, p = 0.04).</p><p id="P8">We next used a widely employed model of systemic inflammation to probe whether elevated levels of endogenous cytokines also impair memory through activation of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors. WT and <italic>Gabra5</italic>−/− mice were treated with the gram-negative bacterial endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS; 125 μg kg<sup>−1</sup>, i.p.) 3 hr before behavioral training. WT mice, but not <italic>Gabra5−/−</italic> mice, exhibited a reduction in contextual fear memory after treatment with LPS (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1C</xref>; n = 10–15; two-way ANOVA, effect of LPS, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,53)</sub> = 8.16, p = 0.006; effect of genotype, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,53)</sub> = 0.0005, p = 0.98; effect of interaction, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,53)</sub> = 1.02, p = 0.32; Bonferroni post hoc test, p < 0.05 for WT). The deficit exhibited by WT mice was reversed by inhibiting α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors with L-655,708 (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1C</xref>; n = 10–11; Student's t test, <italic>t</italic> = 2.7, p = 0.01).</p><p id="P9">Of interest, treatment with either IL-1β or LPS did not affect cued fear memory in response to the conditioned tone (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figures 1D</xref> and S1; n = 14–16; two-way ANOVA, effect of IL-1β, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,54)</sub> = 1.28, p = 0.26; effect of genotype, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,54)</sub> = 1.45, p = 0.23; effect of interaction, <italic>F</italic><sub>(1,54)</sub> = 0.06, p = 0.80). Collectively, these results suggest that the impairment of memory induced by inflammation did not result from a global disruption of cognitive processes, but rather from disruption of hippocampal function.</p></sec><sec id="S4"><title>α5GABA<sub>A</sub> Receptors Regulate Inflammation-Induced Impairment of Long-Term Potentiation</title><p id="P10">Long-term potentiation (LTP), which refers to the prolonged enhancement of excitatory synaptic transmission, is a widely studied cellular model of learning and memory (<xref rid="R30" ref-type="bibr">Lynch, 2004</xref>). We next examined whether the activity of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors regulates the impairment of LTP induced by acute inflammation. Brain slices were prepared from mice 3 hr after they were injected with the endotoxin LPS (125 μg kg<sup>−1</sup>, i.p.). Theta burst stimulation of the Schaffer collateral pathway was used to induce LTP in the CA1 subfield of the hippocampus, and field postsynaptic potentials (fPSPs) were recorded before and after stimulation (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figure 2A</xref>, inset). In slices from the vehicle-treated WT mice, after stimulation, the slope of the fPSPs increased to 136.1% ± 5.6% of baseline (n = 9). In contrast, in slices from the LPS-treated mice, the increase in LTP was only 113.1% ± 2.5% of baseline (n = 10; one-way ANOVA, <italic>F</italic><sub>(2,26)</sub> = 4.38, p = 0.02; New-man-Keuls post hoc test, p < 0.05; <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figures 2A and 2B</xref>). Pharmacological inhibition of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in hippo-campal slices by application of L-655,708 (20 nM) eliminated LPS-induced reduction of LTP (fPSP slope: 130.3% ± 7.7% of baseline, n = 10; one-way ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls post hoc test, p < 0.05; <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figure 2B</xref>).

To further examine whether the IL-1β-enhanced tonic current was indeed mediated by α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors, we used a combination of pharmacological and genetic approaches. We first studied the effects of L-655,708 (20 nM), which inhibited the tonic current in WT neurons by 56.6% ± 9.2% (n = 7; <xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Figure 3D</xref>).

To determine whether IL-1β also enhances synaptic inhibition, we recorded miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mIPSCs) from cultured hippocampal neurons. IL-1β caused a modest reduction in the mIPSCs (Figure S3; <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Table S1</xref>).

Inhibitors of c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs; SP600,125) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI3Ks; LY294,002) had no effect on IL-1β enhancement of the tonic current, showing that activation of these kinases was not required (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">Figures 4B and 4C</xref>).</p><p id="P19">MAPK signaling pathways are important regulators of GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor trafficking (<xref rid="R28" ref-type="bibr">Luscher et al., 2011</xref>). Thus, we studied whether IL-1β increased the expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors on the surface of neurons.

We observed that genetic or pharmacological inhibition of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors was sufficient to prevent impairment of contextual fear memory and synaptic plasticity induced by LPS and IL-1β. Further, IL-1β increased the tonic conductance generated by α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in hippocampal neurons via activation of IL-1 receptors and p38 MAPK-dependent signaling. This increased tonic conductance by IL-1β was most likely due to an increase in the surface expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors.</p><p id="P21">Multiple signaling pathways are activated by IL-1β binding to the IL-1 receptor, including pathways involving p38 MAPK, JNKs, and PI3Ks (<xref rid="R33" ref-type="bibr">O'Neill, 2002</xref>). Our results show that IL-1β enhances the tonic inhibitory conductance mediated by α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors primarily via activation of the p38 MAPK-dependent pathway. Activation of p38 MAPK by IL-1β has been shown in hippocampal neurons (<xref rid="R38" ref-type="bibr">Srinivasan et al., 2004</xref>) and cortical neurons (<xref rid="R26" ref-type="bibr">Li et al., 2003</xref>). Also, consistent with our results, others have shown that activation of p38 MAPK mediates the effects of IL-1β on hippocampal LTP (<xref rid="R11" ref-type="bibr">Coogan et al., 1999</xref>; <xref rid="R21" ref-type="bibr">Kelly et al., 2003</xref>).</p><p id="P22">The increase in tonic current was accompanied by an increase in the surface expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors. Membrane clustering of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors depends on the presence of radixin, an actin-binding protein that anchors the α5 subunit to cytoskeletal elements (<xref rid="R27" ref-type="bibr">Loebrich et al., 2006</xref>). Radixin is targeted by p38 MAPK (<xref rid="R23" ref-type="bibr">Koss et al., 2006</xref>), and phosphorylation of radixin could lead to enhanced membrane stability and clustering of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors at extracellular sites. Alternatively, IL-1β-dependent activation of p38 MAPK could lead to increased activity of downstream mediators such as cAMP response element-binding protein (<xref rid="R38" ref-type="bibr">Srinivasan et al., 2004</xref>), which may also enhance the surface expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors.</p><p id="P23">The available evidence indicates that IL-1β increases the tonic current primarily by increasing the expression of receptors on the surface rather than causing an increase in the concentration of agonist. Specifically, we studied the tonic current in cultured neurons and slices under “concentration-clamp” conditions, in which the extracellular concentration of GABA was fixed. Under these conditions, IL-1β increased the amplitude of the tonic current. Nevertheless, it is plausible that IL-1β also causes a concurrent increase in ambient levels of GABA in the brain in addition to increasing the surface expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors. The concentration of GABA in the extracellular space increases in many proinflammatory states, such as stress (<xref rid="R14" ref-type="bibr">de Groote and Linthorst, 2007</xref>), stroke (<xref rid="R9" ref-type="bibr">Clarkson et al., 2010</xref>), and pain (<xref rid="R24" ref-type="bibr">Kupers et al., 2009</xref>). The increase in extracellular GABA could result from enhanced transmitter release and/or decreased reuptake of GABA. It is unlikely that such an increase in GABA induced by IL-1β is due to synaptic vesicular release, because the frequency of mIPSCs was not increased in the current study. Instead, reduced reuptake via GABA transporters (<xref rid="R44" ref-type="bibr">Wu et al., 2007</xref>), as well as increased release of GABA from activated glial cells (<xref rid="R25" ref-type="bibr">Lee et al., 2010</xref>), may increase GABA levels in the brain.</p><p id="P24">It is of interest that inflammation impairs memory performance in response to context but not to tone, because the former (but not the latter) behavior depends on the hippocampus (<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">Fanselow and Poulos, 2005</xref>). This result is consistent with the relatively restricted expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors to the hippo-campus (<xref rid="R34" ref-type="bibr">Pirker et al., 2000</xref>). In the hippocampus, d-subunit-containing GABA<sub>A</sub> (δGABA<sub>A</sub>) receptors are also located in extrasynaptic regions of the neurons, where they generate a tonic inhibitory conductance (<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">Glykys and Mody, 2007</xref>). Our results do not rule out the possibility that inflammation modifies other GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor subtypes, including dGABA<sub>A</sub> receptors; however, these other subtypes are unlikely to play a role in memory loss. <italic>Gabra</italic>5−/− mice express dGABA<sub>A</sub> receptors, yet IL-1β failed to increase the tonic current in the hippocampal neurons of these mice. Also, inflammation did not induce memory deficits in <italic>Gabra</italic>5−/− mice. Of note, inflammation impairs synaptic plasticity in the dentate gyrus region, where the expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors is low under baseline conditions (<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">Glykys and Mody, 2007</xref>; <xref rid="R21" ref-type="bibr">Kelly et al., 2003</xref>). The levels of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in the dentate gyrus could be increased during inflammation. In support of this notion, the activity of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors increases in the frontal cortex after ischemic stroke (<xref rid="R9" ref-type="bibr">Clarkson et al., 2010</xref>).</p><p id="P25">The current study has several limitations. The first of these relates to the widely used model that we employed to induce systemic inflammation via intraperitoneal injection of IL-1β and LPS. This experimental model mimics many of the features of acute systemic illness in humans (<xref rid="R45" ref-type="bibr">Yirmiya and Goshen, 2011</xref>); however, the method does not restrict the induction of inflammation to the hippocampus. Second, the <italic>Gabra5</italic>−/− mouse does not limit the reduction of expression either regionally or temporally. Also, global deletion of genes for GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor subunits can lead to compensatory changes in the expression of other subunits or proteins, although this has not been reported for <italic>Gabra5</italic>−/− mice (<xref rid="R10" ref-type="bibr">Collinson et al., 2002</xref>; <xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">Crestani et al., 2002</xref>). Behaviors elicited by pharmacological treatments with L-655,708 and MRK-016 faithfully mimicked behaviors exhibited by <italic>Gabra5</italic>−/− mice. Future studies employing conditional mutagenesis of the <italic>Gabra5</italic> gene that is restricted to the CA1 subfield would advance our understanding of the specific role of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in the CA1 hippocampus. Finally, although the consequences of injecting various drugs directly into the hippocampus would be of interest, we did not perform such experiments, in part because of the requirement for carefully designed and performed control experiments, given that inflammation induced by surgery (<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">Cibelli et al., 2010</xref>) and treatment with general anesthetics (<xref rid="R46" ref-type="bibr">Zurek et al., 2012</xref>) can cause long-term impairment of memory performance.</p><p id="P26">Currently, no treatments are available to reduce the memory deficits associated with inflammation. The results of this study indicate that the attenuation of memory loss by the administration of inverse agonists for α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors is a potential treatment strategy. Because of the restricted expression of α5GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors in the hippocampus (<xref rid="R34" ref-type="bibr">Pirker et al., 2000</xref>), the inverse agonists that inhibit these receptors are generally well tolerated and lack the proconvulsant and anxiogenic properties of nonselective GABA<sub>A</sub> receptor antagonists (<xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">Atack, 2010</xref>). Finally, this study may stimulate interest in the effects of inflammation on GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors that are expressed in tissues outside the nervous system (<xref rid="R43" ref-type="bibr">Watanabe et al., 2002</xref>), including the lung and liver. Upregulation of these GABA<sub>A</sub> receptors may also contribute to organ dysfunction associated with infection, trauma, and immune-related diseases (<xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">Dantzer et al., 2008</xref>).</p></sec><sec sec-type="methods" id="S9"><title>EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES</title><p id="P27">All experimental procedures were approved by the Animal Care Committee of the University of Toronto (Toronto, ON, Canada).
