No evidence for functional GABA receptors in outer hair cells isolated from the apical half of the guinea-pig cochlea.

Abstract

Outer hair cells, isolated from the apical cochlear turns, did not respond to GABA during whole-cell recording. A few cells did respond to acetylcholine. Thus we have no evidence to suggest that GABA acts as an efferent neurotransmitter in the cochlea.
