From the Behavioral Pharmacology of Beta-Carbolines to Seizures, Anxiety, and Memory by Patrice Venault, Georges Chapouthier

“…These data suggest a possible physiological relationship, through the GABA-A receptor channel, between memory processes, anxiety, and ultimately, in pathological states, epileptic seizures. This relationship seems to be confirmed partially by experiments on mouse strains selected for their resistance (BR) and sensitivity (BS) to a single convulsive dose of a beta-carboline. …”
