Abstract: A class of [1,8] naphthyridine analogues which are substituted in the 4-position by a substituted phenyl ring. These compounds are ligands for GABAA receptors and useful in the therapy of deleterious mental states such as anxiety.

Abstract: A class of substituted pyrazolo[1,5-d][1,2,4]triazine derivatives, possessing an optionally substituted cycloalkyl, phenyl or heteroaryl substituent at the 7-position, an alkyl group at the 4-position, and a substituted alkoxy moiety at the 2-position, are selective ligands for GABAA receptors, in particular having high affinity for the ?2 and/or ?3 subunit thereof, and are accordingly of benefit in the treatment and/or prevention of disorders of the central nervous system, including anxiety and convulsions.

Abstract: A class of substituted 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine derivatives, possessing a fluoro-substituted phenyl ring at the 3-position and a heteroaryl-methoxy moiety at the 6-position, are selective ligands for GABAA receptors, in particular having high affinity for the &agr;2 and/or &agr;3 subunit thereof, and are accordingly of benefit in the treatment and/or prevention of disorders of the central nervous system, including anxiety and convulsions.

Abstract: Compounds according to Formula (I): or a salt or prodrug thereof, have good affinity as ligands for the alpha2 and/or alpha3 subunit of the human GABAA receptor and are useful for treatment of disorders of the central nervous system, including anxiety and convulsions.

Abstract: Substituted triazolo-pyridazine derivative compounds represented by wherein the variables are disclosed herein are selective ligands for GABA-A receptors, particularly for the &agr;2 and/or &agr;3 subunits.

Abstract: Compounds having formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof: ##STR1## are selective agonists of the 5-HT.sub.1D.alpha. receptor and are useful in the treatment of migraine and associated conditions.

Abstract: A class of substituted azetidine, pyrrolidine and piperidine derivatives are selective agonists of 5-HT.sub.1 -like receptors, being potent agonists of the human 5-HT.sub.1D.alpha. receptor subtype whilst possessing at least a 10-fold selective affinity for the 5-HT.sub.1D.alpha. receptor subtype relative to the 5-HT.sub.1D.beta. subtype; they are therefore useful in the treatment and/or prevention of clinical conditions, in particular migraine and associated disorders, for which a subtype-selective agonist of 5-HT.sub.1D receptors is indicated, whilst eliciting fewer side-effects, notably adverse cardiovascular events, than those associated with non-subtype-selective 5-HT.sub.1D receptor agonists.
