International Union of Pharmacology. XV. Subtypes of gamma-aminobutyric acidA receptors: classification on the basis of subunit structure and receptor function.
TLDR
This article does not aim to review in detail the properties of γ-aminobutyric acidA(GABAA)breceptors, but in this same journal, a review of the binding properties and pharmacology of these receptors has been published.

Escitalopram versus citalopram: the surprising role of the R-enantiomer
TLDR
The R- enantiomer present in citalopram counteracts the activity of the S-enantiomer, thereby providing a possible basis for the pharmacological and clinical differences observed between citalobram and escitaloprams.

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

(R)‐N‐[4,4‐Bis(3‐Methyl‐2‐Thienyl)but‐3‐en‐1‐yl]Nipecotic Acid Binds with High Affinity to the Brain γ‐Aminobutyric Acid Uptake Carrier
TLDR
It is concluded that NO 328 is a potent and selective inhibitor of neuronal and glial GABA uptake and that [3H]NO 328 are a useful radioligand for labeling the GABA uptake carrier in brain membranes.

High densities of benzodiazepine receptors in human cortical areas
TLDR
It is reported here that benzodiazepine receptors are also present in the human brain, that the cerebral and cerebellar cortical regions contain the highest densities of binding sites and that the receptors in human brain are very similar to those in rat brain.

Benzodiazepine receptors in rat brain
TLDR
Experiments suggest that another important group of psychoactive drugs, the benzodiazepines, bind to specific receptors on the membranes of rat brain cells, and this suggests that there may be an unknown endogenous neurotransmitter which is the natural ligand for the Benzodiazepine receptor.
