Effect of avermectin B1a on chick neuronal gamma-aminobutyrate receptor channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes.

abstract：:We compared the binding of [N-methyl-3H]scopolamine methyl chloride [( 3H]NMS) and pirenzepine to muscarinic receptors in four regions of the rat central nervous system (cortex, hippocampus, striatum, and cerebellum) and in rat heart. Equilibrium binding studies suggested the existence of three classes of receptors: A...
