Barbiturate receptor sites are coupled to benzodiazepine receptors.
Barbiturates enhance the binding of [3H]diazepam to benzodiazepine receptor sites in rat brain. This effect occurs at pharmacologically relevant concentrations of barbiturates, and the relative activity of a series of compounds correlates highly with anesthetic activity of the barbiturates and with their ability to enhance postsynaptic inhibitory responses to the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobut...
متن کاملOptimum Conditions of Radioligand Receptor Binding Assay of Ligands of Benzodiazepine Receptors
To obtain drugs which are more selective at benzodiazepine (BZD) receptors, design and synthesis of functionally selective ligands for BZD receptors is the current strategy of our pharmaceutical chemistry department. The affinity of newly synthesized ligands is assessed by radioligand receptor binding assays. Based on our previous studies, 2-phenyl-5-oxo-7-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolo[a,2,3]-pyrimid...

متن کاملBINDING SITES ARE CONSTITUENTS OF THE y-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID BENZODIAZEPINE RECEPTOR COMPLEX
t-Butylbicyclophosphorothionate (TBPS), a derivative of potent GABA antagonistic cage convulsants, has recently been introduced (Squires, R. F., J. E. Casida, M. Richardson, and E. Saederup (1983) Mol. Pharmacol. 13: 326-336) as ligand for a GABA-A receptor-linked drug receptor. Using conventionally prepared washed membrane fractions from rat cerebral cortex, we have confirmed that in the prese...
متن کاملPeripheral Benzodiazepine-binding Sites
The ability of a variety of detergents to solubilize peripheral benzodiazepine-binding sites from rat kidney was tested. Of all the detergents tested, only digitonin was found to be suitable for solubilization. This detergent solubilized 21% of the binding activity; 47% was inactivated, and 32% remained in the pellet. Specific binding of [3H]Ro 5-4884 to membranebound and solubilized peripheral...
