Characteristics of [3H] propyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate binding to benzodiazepine receptors in human brain.
Abstract
Characterization of the binding of derivatives of beta-carboline-3-carboxylate, a putative endogenous ligand for benzodiazepine (BZ) receptors, has not previously been attempted in normal human brain. In the present study, we demonstrated saturable, high affinity binding of [3H] propyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate [3H] PrCC) in normal human frontal cerebral cortex and cerebellum exhibiting pharmacological specificity similar to [3H] diazepam …
