2,3-Benzodiazepine binding site on AMPA receptors

Molecular classification
Allosteric binding site, Ion channel subunit, AMPA receptor subunit
01

Overview

The 2,3-benzodiazepine binding site is an allosteric site on AMPA receptors that is targeted by 2,3-benzodiazepine compounds. These compounds act as noncompetitive antagonists, inhibiting AMPA receptor function and reducing excitatory neurotransmission. This mechanism has potential therapeutic applications in neurological disorders associated with excessive AMPA receptor activation, such as epilepsy and ischemic brain injury.
