Translocator protein 18 kDa (TSPO): molecular sensor of brain injury and repair.

TL;DR: The latest evidence suggests that TSPO may not only serve as a biomarker of active brain disease but also the use of T SPO-specific ligands may have therapeutic implications in brain injury and repair.

Peripheral-type benzodiazepine/diazepam binding inhibitor receptor: biological role in steroidogenic cell function.

TL;DR: Because of their abundance in peripheral tissues and in order to distinguish them from the GABAA or central benzodiazepine receptors, this class of benzodi...

Agonist and antagonist benzodiazepine receptor interaction in vitro

TL;DR: 3H-Ro 15-1788 interacts with the same number of BR sites as the agonist 3H-clonazepam in various brain regions, but their mode of receptor interaction is different and the thermodynamics of agonist and antagonist receptor interaction are different, but only at temperatures above 21 °C.

Peripheral benzodiazepine binding sites: effect of PK 11195, 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-methyl-(1-methylpropyl)-3 isoquinolinecarboxamide. II. In vivo studies.

TL;DR: In this article, a new compound, chemically unrelated to benzodiazepines, which is a potent inhibitor of [ 3 H] R05-4864 in vitro is also very effective after I.P. injection and oral administration.

Specific benzodiazepine receptors in rat brain characterized by high-affinity (3H)diazepam binding

TL;DR: Specific [3H]diazepam binding to membranes appears to be restricted to brain, where it is unevenly distributed: the density of diazepam receptors is about five times higher in cortex (the highest density) than in pons-meddula (lowest density).

Resolution of two biochemically and pharmacologically distinct benzodiazepine receptors

TL;DR: It is proposed that two biochemically distinct BDZ receptors exist in brain which are responsible for the mediation of different pharmacological activities.

High affinity renal [3H]flunitrazepam binding: Characterization, localization, and alteration in hypertension

TL;DR: Evidence that the renal benzodiazepine binding site is of high affinity, is specific, has a unique distribution, and is regulated during hypertension suggests that it may be associated with an important pathophysiologic structure.
