Retirement announcement for Sol Snyder #JohnsHopkins notes:
His “approach became known as the “grind and bind” technique, and Sol used it to identify… endogenous #opiate receptors in the brain; … the #GABA receptor, to which the drug diazepam attaches; the adenosine receptor, which #caffeine blocks to cause mental stimulation; the #bradykinin receptor, which transmits pain; and the #dopamine receptor, to which antipsychotic drugs attach”
