Recently, these receptors are divided into two subgroups (B - B, and 1 - 2). It is believed that the hypnotic effect due to stronger binding with compounds 1-B receptors. Binding to benzodiazepine receptors is accompanied by activation of the GABA receptor (see. Aminalon), which leads to inhibition of the functional activity of CNS cells. The main value for the hypnotic effect is inhibition of the activity of the cells of the brain stem reticular activating system.
