those of the parent steroids. A 6alpha-, 7beta- or 7alpha-Me substituent resulted in reduced potency for inhibition of radioligand binding, GABA(A) receptor modulation and tadpole anesthesia. Because of the similar effects of methyl group substitution in the two series of compounds and previous results from other studies showing that structural modifications in the steroidDring/side chain region produce
