In Papio papio baboons benzodiazepines can facilitate the appearance of a naturally occurring non-epileptic myoclonus, suggesting a possible role of GABAergic transmission in their physiopathology. Nevertheless, as this myoclonus is blocked by physostigmine, the effect of benzodiazepines is probably due to their indirect action on the cholinergic system. Therefore, in this study, we report the effects on the non-epileptic myoclonus of drugs influencing GABAergic transmission.
