Contrasting effects of ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta CCE) and diazepam on cerebellar cyclic GMP content and antagonism of both effects by Ro 15-1788, a specific benzodiazepine receptor blocker.
    European journal of pharmacology, 1983, May-20, Volume: 90, Issue:1

    Ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta CCE), a benzodiazepine antagonist, was found to increase basal levels of cyclic GMP in rat cerebellum. beta CCE also augmented the elevation of cyclic GMP concentrations induced by isoniazid, in contrast to diazepam which blocked this effect of isoniazid. Administration of beta CCE and diazepam together cancelled each other's effect on the elevation of cyclic GMP levels after isoniazid. Ro 15-1788, another potent benzodiazepine antagonist, was found to have virtually no effect on cyclic GMP levels in naive or isoniazid-treated rats. Ro 15-1788 antagonized diazepam's lowering of the elevation of cyclic GMP content of cerebellum after isoniazid. Ro 15-1788 also blocked the increase in cyclic GMP levels elicited by beta CCE, indicating that this effect of beta CCE involves its interaction at benzodiazepine receptors. Some pharmacological actions of beta CCE might be based on hindering GABA transmission.

Ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate reverses the diazepam effect on cerebellar cyclic GMP.
    European journal of pharmacology, 1982, May-21, Volume: 80, Issue:2-3

    The administration of ethyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate (beta-CCE), a ligand for benzodiazepine receptors, did not affect the cerebellar cyclic GMP level in mice, but giving beta-CCE together with diazepam significantly inhibited the diazepam-induced decrease in cyclic GMP. The fact that no antagonism was observed when beta-CCE was given 15 min before the diazepam treatment indicates that beta-CCE is short-acting. These biochemical observations support the conclusions from behavioral and electrophysiological studies which indicated that beta-CCE is a short-acting antagonist of benzodiazepines.
