Decreases in mRNA levels of GAD65 and GAD67 are seen in the cerebellum of PCP treated rats versus saline controls as shown by PCP/Saline expression ratios. All other gene changes are involved in GABAergic transmission between Golgi cells and granule cells. Differences in expression determined by t test
