چکیده انگلیسی
Using positron emission tomography (PET), the present study assessed the binding of [11C]flumazenil to GABA-A receptors in anesthetized rats following a single intravenous injection of an active dose of either etifoxine (25Â mg/kg) or diazepam (1Â mg/kg), which are both anxiolytic drugs. [11C]flumazenil binding was measured in five discrete brain structures, namely the caudate putamen, hippocampus, cerebellum, occipital cortex and parietal cortex. As expected, diazepam injection produced a significant decrease in [11C]flumazenil binding, which was interpreted as benzodiazepine GABA-A receptor occupancy, whereas etifoxine increased the binding of [11C]flumazenil. This first use of in vivo imaging after etifoxine administration revealed the activated binding pattern of [11C]flumazenil and highlighted the pharmacological differences between etifoxine and benzodiazepines. Using the same [11C]flumazenil radiotracer, PET neuroimaging could be applied to larger animals and, ultimately, to human subjects, thus providing new perspectives for better defining the molecular pharmacology of etifoxine.
