Photoincorporation of ligands into the benzodiazepine site of native gamma-aminobutyric acidA (GABAA) receptors provides useful information about the nature of the benzodiazepine (BZ) binding site. Photoincorporation of flunitrazepam into a single population of GABAA receptors, recombinant human alpha1beta3gamma2, was investigated

Ligands that bind to the benzodiazepine binding site on the GABA A receptor can attenuate or potentiate cognition. To investigate this property, the chemical determinants favoring selective binding or selective activation of the alpha5beta2gamma2 and alpha1beta2gamma2 GABA A receptor isoforms

Flunitrazepam is a benzodiazepine derivative whose hypnotic effect predominates over the sedative, anxiolytic, muscle-relaxing and anticonvulsant effects characteristic of benzodiazepines. Thus, it is used as a night-time hypnotic and in anaesthesiology: due to the pronounced hypnotic effect it is not

Studies have estimated that failure of cecal intubation occurs with conventional colonoscopy in up to 10 % of cases. Double-balloon endoscopy (DBE) systems, magnetic endoscope imaging (MEI), and transparent cap have been shown to improve success rates for colonoscopy. This study
