GABRD and stroke disorder: Our finding that post-stroke down-regulation of δ-GABAARs is responsible for the improved motor performance could further be corroborated by the better RotaRod performance of GABRD+/− vs. wild-type mice [GABRD+/+: 82.63 ± 8.81 sec, GABRD+/−: 121.12 ± 5.10 sec (n = 11 each), p ≤ 0.01; Fig. 4C].
