GABAAR ε-subunit expression in the VRC is seasonally regulated. A: immunofluorescent signal intensity for GABAAR ε-subunit is low in the VRC during the SA period. B: GABAAR ε-immunofluorescence in the VRC is increased during T (181% SA; P < 0.05). C: GABAAR ε-immunofluorescence in the VRC during IBA is intermediate between T and SA (133% of SA; NS). D: quantitative analysis of GABAAR ε-immunofluorescence during SA, T, and IBA shows a significant increase in GABAAR ε-subunit expression during T by comparison with SA (*P < 0.05). Error bars indicate SE.
