The [delta] subunit of the GABA[subscript [Alpha]] receptor (GABA[subscript [Alpha]]R) is highly expressed in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. Genetic deletion of this subunit reduces synaptic and extrasynaptic inhibition and decreases sensitivity to neurosteroids. This paper examines the effect of these changes on hippocampus-dependent trace…
