Effect of exposure of primary cultured cerebral cortical neurons to ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta-CCE) on the function of benzodiazepine receptors was studied. Exposure of neurons to beta-CCE (0.1-10 microM) decreased the binding of [3H]flunitrazepam to extensively washed membrane fractions in a

Ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta CCE), a benzodiazepine antagonist, was found to increase basal levels of cyclic GMP in rat cerebellum. beta CCE also augmented the elevation of cyclic GMP concentrations induced by isoniazid, in contrast to diazepam which blocked this effect
Benzodiazepine binding to gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptors allosterically modulates GABA binding and increases the currents induced by submaximal GABA concentrations. Benzodiazepines induce conformational changes in the GABA-binding site in the extracellular domain, but it is uncertain whether these
The effects of benzodiazepine inverse agonists on the long-term potentiation of synaptic transmission in hippocampal slices of the guinea pig were examined using an extracellular recording technique. Benzodiazepine inverse agonists, beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta-CCE), 2-phenylpyrazolo [4,3-c]quinolin-3(5H)-one (CGS-8216) and 2-[5-methylthien-3-yl]-2,5-dihydro-3H-pyrazolo [4,3-c]quinolin-3-one (S-135), augmented
