Benzodiazepines are a class of heterocyclic compounds typically represented by the antianxiety drug diazepam. About 15 years ago, a high-affinity binding site for benzodiazepines was discovered in brain tissue, and it appeared that this receptor was in some way part of the receptor complex for the i

Behavioral and electrophysiological evidence implicating the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor complex in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy was obtained using an improved rat model of hepatic encephalopathy caused by thioacetamide-induced fulminant hepatic failure. After the administration of th
It has been reported that berberine is valuable for long-term treatment of ventricular premature beats (VPBs) and leads to a decrease in mortality for patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). In order to improve its therapeutic value and reduce its side effects, it is necessary to study the rel
Kinetic analysis of the time course of association of [3Hl-2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-pdioxin with hepatic cytosol from five rodent species gave additional evidence for differences in the properties of the Ah receptor ligand binding subunit between species. A parallel study of the association of six
