Benzo- hvordan virker de nevralt?

[Gjest Mohikaneren]

Siden det er så innmari mye innlegg for/mot diverse saker og ting her så lurer jeg på om noen kan hjelpe meg.

Spørsmålet er som følger; Hvordan virker disse benzoene i hjernen? Hvilke kretser aktiveres/hemmes? Tenker da særlig på sobril.

Håper noen kan svare.

Mvh

All benzodiazepines act by enhancing the actions of a natural brain chemical, GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). GABA is a neurotransmitter, an agent which transmits messages from one brain cell (neuron) to another. The message that GABA transmits is an inhibitory one: it tells the neurons that it contacts to slow down or stop firing. Since about 40% of the millions of neurons all over the brain respond to GABA, this means that GABA has a general quietening influence on the brain: it is in some ways the body's natural hypnotic and tranquilliser. This natural action of GABA is augmented by benzodiazepines which thus exert an extra (often excessive) inhibitory influence on neurons

Ja, jeg fant det ikke. Kanskje det er en "light" utgave. Mener jeg fant slike ting i "bokutgaven".

har inntrykk av det samme selv,på nettet finner man ikke "hele" utgaven,mens legen kan ramse opp det jeg spør om.
