6-Chloro-3'-nitroflavone is a potent ligand for the benzodiazepine binding site of the GABA(A) receptor devoid of intrinsic activity

6-Chloro-3'-nitroflavone integrates a list of nearly 70 flavone derivatives synthesized in our laboratories. The effects of 6-chloro-3'- nitroflavone on the benzodiazepine binding sites (BDZ-BSs) of the GABA(A) receptor were examined in vitro and in vivo. 6-Chloro-3'-nitroflavone inhi...
