Seizures (Absence Seizure)
11/01/1986 - "
Pretreatment with either RO 15-1788 (3, 10 and 30 mg/kg), CGS-8216 (3, 10 and 30 mg/kg) or PK-11195 (10 and 60 mg/kg) failed in this study to modify consistently either the afterdischarge thresholds or elicited suprathreshold seizures or duration of afterdischarge.
"
01/01/1988 - "
CGS 9896 protected mice against seizures induced by beta-vinyllactic acid, whereas CGS 8216 shortened the latency period before convulsions occurred.
"
09/01/1983 - "
CGS-8216, a pyrazoloquinoline benzodiazepine antagonist, precipitated abstinence in the diazepam-dependent dog, but did not precipitate tonic-clonic seizures.
"
05/23/1983 - "
Pretreatment of animals with the benzodiazepine receptor antagonists CGS 8216 prevented the electroencephalographic seizures elicited by beta-CCE.

3-carboethoxy-beta-carboline (beta-CCE) elicits electroencephalographic seizures in rats: reversal by the benzodiazepine antagonist CGS 8216.

Muscle Spasticity (Spastic)
07/17/1985 - "
Effects of methyl beta-carboline-3-carboxylate, Ro 15-1788 and CGS 8216 on muscle tone in genetically spastic rats.
"
10/01/1984 - "
CGS 8216, Ro 15-1788 and methyl-beta-carboline-3-carboxylate, but not EMD 41717 antagonize the muscle relaxant effect of diazepam in genetically spastic rats.
"
07/17/1985 - "
beta-CCM, 2.5 and 3.0 mg/kg i.p., augmented the tonic activity in the EMG of GS muscle in spastic rats while it did not modify muscle tone at doses of 1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg. Diazepam, 0.4 mg/kg i.p., and Ro 15-1788, 5 mg/kg i.p., but not CGS 8216, 5 mg/kg i.p., antagonised the effect of the beta-carboline on muscle tone.
"
07/17/1985 - "
Genetically spastic rats were used for studying the effect on muscle tone of beta-carboline-3-carboxylic acid methylester (beta-CCM), an inverse benzodiazepine (BDZ) agonist, and that of Ro 15-1788 and CGS 8216, both putative antagonists of pharmacological actions of BDZs.
"
08/22/1986 - "
Beta-Carboline-3-carboxylic acid methylester (beta-CCM), 2 mg/kg i.p., while not affecting the tonic activity in the EMG, reversed the depressant effect of phenobarbitone, 30 mg/kg. Both Ro 15-1788, 5 mg/kg, and CGS 8216, 5 mg/kg, prevented the reversal of the depressant action of phenobarbitone, 30 mg/kg, produced by beta-CCM, 2 mg/kg. The results indicate that the muscle relaxant action of phenobarbitone in genetically spastic rats is mediated via GABA-related mechanisms and add further support to the hypothesis that both Ro 15-1788 and CGS 8216 are specific antagonists at benzodiazepine receptors, devoid of intrinsic activity at moderate doses.
"
3.
Tremor (Tremors)
11/10/1987 - "
CGS 8216 precipitated withdrawal signs were less clearly dose-dependent; (5) onset of Ro 15-1788 precipitated withdrawal signs were rapid (5-15 min) and reliable, while the onset of CGS 8216 precipitated withdrawal signs were generally slower (approximately 30 min) and more variable; (6) at doses of Ro 15-1788 and CGS 8216 that produced equal levels of vomiting and retching, Ro 15-1788 produced more limb-tremor than CGS 8216.
"
04/01/1988 - "
Thus, flumazenil precipitates the benzodiazepine abstinence syndrome, as evidenced by tremors, tachypnea and other signs, including seizures, whereas CGS-8216 may have some selectivity in precipitating seizures without other signs of abstinence.
"
4.
Shock
01/01/1987 - "
These results show that CGS 8216 can reduce water intake in rats regardless of whether drinking results in shock presentation.
"
01/01/1987 - "
In a second group of rats which drank under identical conditions but without shock, CGS 8216 again reduced water intake.
"
01/01/1987 - "
The overall volumes of water consumed were reduced by CGS 8216 as was the number of licks during the first, unshocked schedule component, before shock was applied, showing that the effect on unshocked licking was not due to a generalisation of suppression between periods with or without shock.
"
05/09/1983 - "
CGS 8216 (2.5-10 mg/kg i.p.) did not affect nonpunished responding, but doses of 5 and 10 mg/kg significantly reduced the rate of punished responding (i.e., the number of 3 second drinking episodes in a "shock" contingency).
"
5.
Hepatic Encephalopathy
05/01/1993 - "
Furthermore, although Ro 15-4513 and CGS 8216 significantly increased motor activity in stage 4 hepatic encephalopathy, this may reflect their partial inverse agonist properties.
"
05/01/1993 - "
The benzodiazepine receptor ligands Ro 15-3505, Ro 15-4513 and CGS-8216 ameliorated motor abnormalities in rats with stage 3 hepatic encephalopathy.
"
09/01/1987 - "
The progressive course of hepatic encephalopathy developing in rats after massive hepatic ischemia due to hepatic artery ligation within 48 hr of a portacaval shunt was not altered by the injection of a benzodiazepine antagonist, CGS 8216, in a dose that was sufficient to reverse diazepam-induced coma quickly.
