[Effect of benzodiazepines on interneuronal transmission in afferent systems and their antagonism with Ro 15-1788]. 1983

D A Kharkevich, and L N Sinitsyn, and V V Churiukanov, and V P Fisenko, and O N Chichenikov

The tranquilizers diazepam and phenazepam inhibited the responses in ventrolateral columns and segmental polysynaptic potentials in the spinal cord evoked by electrical stimulation of somatic nerves. The drugs also inhibited the responses in somavisceral and associative areas of the brain cortex, in specific, associative and nonspecific nuclei of the thalamus and mesencephalic reticular formation evoked by stimulation of visceral and somatic nerves as well as by sound and photostimulation. Diazepam and phenazepam inhibited cortical responses to single and pair stimulation of the fibers of thalamocortical radiation. Ro 15-1788 which is a specific benzodiazepine antagonist promoted the recovery of bioelectrical responses decreased by diazepam and phenazepam. It is suggested that the inhibitory action of diazepam and phenazepam on interneuronal transmission in afferent systems is realized via the involvement of benzodiazepine receptors.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009435 Synaptic Transmission The communication from a NEURON to a target (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) across a SYNAPSE. In chemical synaptic transmission, the presynaptic neuron releases a NEUROTRANSMITTER that diffuses across the synaptic cleft and binds to specific synaptic receptors, activating them. The activated receptors modulate specific ion channels and/or second-messenger systems in the postsynaptic cell. In electrical synaptic transmission, electrical signals are communicated as an ionic current flow across ELECTRICAL SYNAPSES.

D010525 Peripheral Nerves The nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, including the autonomic, cranial, and spinal nerves. Peripheral nerves contain non-neuronal cells and connective tissue as well as axons. The connective tissue layers include, from the outside to the inside, the epineurium, the perineurium, and the endoneurium.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D003975 Diazepam A benzodiazepine with anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, sedative, muscle relaxant, and amnesic properties and a long duration of action. Its actions are mediated by enhancement of GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID activity. 7-Chloro-1,3-dihydro-1-methyl-5-phenyl-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one,Apaurin,Diazemuls,Faustan,Relanium,Seduxen,Sibazon,Stesolid,Valium

D005071 Evoked Potentials Electrical responses recorded from nerve, muscle, SENSORY RECEPTOR, or area of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM following stimulation. They range from less than a microvolt to several microvolts. The evoked potential can be auditory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, AUDITORY), somatosensory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, SOMATOSENSORY), visual (EVOKED POTENTIALS, VISUAL), or motor (EVOKED POTENTIALS, MOTOR), or other modalities that have been reported.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
