Benzodiazepine receptors and diazepam-binding inhibitor in human cerebral tumors.

abstract：:Previous studies using two seizure paradigms, electroconvulsive shock and kindling, suggested potential sites of endogenous thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) action in specific epileptogenic areas. We studied TRH gene expression and TRH receptors in rat limbic areas using the kindling model of epilepsy. Immunoassaya...
