Abstract:

Benzodiazepine receptor ligands are known to modulate the binding of [35S]TBPS to the chloride channel via an allosteric action. In the cases of diazepam, zopiclone and CGS 9895, the enhanced binding of [35S]TBPS induced by these benzodiazepine agonists was antagonized by CGS 8216. This antagonism was characterized both by a shift to the right and a decrease in the maximal stimulation, for the dose-response curves of diazepam and zopiclone. In the case of CGS 9895, the maximal response was not decreased. These data indicate that CGS 8216 is a noncompetitive antagonist of classical benzodiazepine receptor agonists but is a competitive inhibitor of the partial agonist, CGS 9895.
