GABA treatment promotes cell surface expression of α₁β₂ and α₁β₂ (LL/AA) receptors.

Condition	Surface Receptors (% of control α1β2 receptors)
α 1 β 2
Control	100
GABA	311 ± 26*
α1β2(LL/AA)
Control	98 ± 1
GABA	1888 ± 294†

Flow cytometry data are shown as the average receptor cell surface expression expressed as a percent of control ± SEM, n ≥ 3 for each experiment with each replicate conducted in triplicate. Data were compared via one-tailed, unpaired t-test, assuming unequal variances.

^*p ≤ 0.01 control vs. GABA for α₁β₂ receptors
