A High-Resolution In Vivo Atlas of the Human Brain’s Benzodiazepine Binding Site of GABA <sub>A</sub> Receptors

2020-04-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the human brain and plays a key role in several brain functions and neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety, epilepsy, and depression. The binding of benzodiazepines to the benzodiazepine receptor sites (BZR) located on GABA A receptors (GABA A Rs) potentiates the inhibitory effect of GABA leading to the anxiolytic, a...
