Differential effects of the benzodiazepine antagonist Ro 15-1788 on two types of myoclonus in baboon Papio papio.

Certain benzodiazepines (BZs) like lorazepam, diazepam or clonazepam induce myoclonus jerks in photosensitive and non-photosensitive baboons. Papio papio, which are not accompanied by EEG paroxysmal discharges (type B). The effect of the selective BZ antagonist R0 15-1788 was evaluated in this myoclonus. Ro 15-1788 completely blocked type B myoclonus without decreasing the level of vigilance in the two types of baboons, and reversed the antiepileptic action of the BZs in the photosensitive ones, permitting the reappearance of myoclonus following EEG paroxysmal discharges (type A). L-5-hydroxytryptophan and progabide also blocked type B myoclonus, but the blockade was only transiently effective and was always accompanied by slight drowsiness.[1]
