Repeated administration of partial agonist of benzodiazepine receptors Ro 19-8022 (a derivative of quinolizine class) does not elicit withdrawal in adult rats. Our older data demonstrated that single injection of Ro 19-2088 to immature rats induces increased sensitivity to convulsant action of pentylenetetrazol as a withdrawal phenomenon. To know if repeated administration of the partial agonist has the same effect we injected rats at postnatal days 7 to 11 with an anticonvulsant dose of Ro 19-8022 (0.5 mg/kg i.p.) and tested them 24 h, 48 h and 4 days after the last injection. Repeated administration of Ro 19-8022 resulted also in an increased sensitivity to convulsant action of pentylenetetrazol in immature rats (higher incidence and severity of seizures). This effect was significant 24 h after the last injection but only outlined 48 h after administration. No signs of hypersensitivity were seen at 4-day interval. There is a difference between immature and adult brain in an appearance of withdrawal symptom after administration of the partial agonist of benzodiazepine receptors Ro 19-8022.
