Are "GABAergic" Agents Really So Selective for GABA? Implications for Single- versus Multi-Site Hypotheses From Promiscuous Behavior of Anesthetics and Their Molecular Targets In Vitro.

In the literature, anesthetic agents are commonly described as if their hypnotic action is mediated by a predominant molecular target, using terminology such as "GABAergic" or "NMDAergic." The justification for this is unclear. The authors might ther…
