Enhancement of gamma-aminobutyric acid receptor binding by protopine-type alkaloids

J Kardos et al. Arzneimittelforschung. 1986 Jun.

Abstract

Protopine, cryptopine and allocryptopine were demonstrated to enhance 3H-gamma-aminobutyric acid (3H-GABA) binding to rat brain synaptic membrane receptors. The above finding might be indicative of benzodiazepine-like activity of these alkaloids.
