pubmed:abstractText |
Two benzodiazepine antagonists were tested in an animal model of anxiety, the social interaction test. Ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (1 and 2 mg/kg) had a potent anxiogenic action; the imidazodiazepine RO 15-1788 (4-10 mg/kg) had a weak anxiogenic effect that with a larger dose (20 mg/kg) disappeared and RO 15-1788 (10 mg/kg) significantly counteracted the anxiogenic effect of the beta-carboline (1 mg/kg). The implications of these results for the understanding of the pharmacological basis of anxiety and for the existence and nature of an endogenous ligand for the benzodiazepine binding site are discussed.
