Abstract

The ρ1 GABAC receptor is a ligand-gated chloride ion channel that shows promise as a therapeutic target for myopia, sleep disorders, memory and learning facilitation, and anxiety- related disorders. As such, there is a need for molecular probes to understand the role GABAC receptors play in physiological and pathological processes. To date, no labeled (either radioactive or fluorescent) GABAC selective ligand has been developed that can ...
