    Abstract:
    The centrally acting drugs belonging to different groups--fluphenazine, trifluperidol, phthoracyzine, imipramine, diazepam, apomorphine, fentanyl, diphneylhydantoin, nonachlazine displayed in vitro an inhibitory effect on the uptake of gamma-aminobutyric acid by rat brain synaptosomes. A decrease in the activity of synaptosomal Na,K-ATPase was found in most cases. Drugs that failed to alter GABA uptake were as a rule found to be ineffective in relation to the enzyme activity (carbidine, morphine). GABA uptake was not affected by certain drugs inhibiting the Na,K-ATPase activity (azabuperon, tetrabenazine). It is supposed that the drugs used had at least two possible sites of action - Na,K-ATPase itself and hypothetic GABA transmembrane carrier.
