Abstract. Barbiturates and the related depressant drugs, etazolate and etomidate, inhibited both the binding of [ 3 H]bicuculline methochloride (BMC) to Î³-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor sites and the binding of [ 3 H]Î²-carboline-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (Î²CCM) to benzodiazepine receptor sites in mammalian brain.he barbiturate inhibition of [ 3 H]BMC binding involved a decrease in affinity which at high concentrations of barbiturates results in an effective complete loss of detectable binding. The maximal inhibition of [ 3 H]Î²CCM binding involved a more modest decrease in affinity (increase in K D from 1.35 to 1.85 nM).
Oona /oona/ [2 sylls.] as a girls' name is pronounced OO-nah. It is of Scottish, Irish and Gaelic origin. Variant of Una (Latin) one. Playwright Eugene O'Neill gave this name to his daughter.ona /oona/ [2 sylls.] as a girls' name is pronounced OO-nah. It is of Scottish, Irish and Gaelic origin. Variant of Una (Latin) one.

Oona was also the name playwright Eugene OâNeill chose for his daughter in 1919. She grew up to marry Charlie Chaplin â four decades her senior. Other Oonas and Unas have an otherworldly quality. A fairy named Oona features in the 1985 fantasy movie Legend; a genus of butterflies is known as Una.hanks to Nicole (aka Dirty Hippy) for suggesting our Name of the Day: Oona. With choices like Mia and Ava topping the charts, plenty of parents are searching for the next simple, two-syllable choice for girls. Weâve suggested that Isla might be a contender; thereâs also Anya, Noa and Luna.
