- Literal: "GABAA-receptor immunoreactivity is associated with the terminal plasma membrane and also occupies the intercellular cleft adjacent to a GABA-negative terminal (T2) D, dendrite. (b) Three GABAergic terminals (T1, T2, T3), two of which (T1, T3) express GABAA-receptor immunoreactivity associated with the terminal plasma membrane."
