Glycine receptors are ligand-gated chloride-selective channels that control excitability in the central nervous system (CNS). Herein, we have investigated the mRNA expression of the glycine receptor alpha 1 (Glra1), alpha 2 (Glra2), alpha 4 (Glra4) and the beta (Glrb) subunits, in adult female and male mice. Single-cell RNA sequencing data re-analysis of the Zeisel et al.
