The instant invention is novel uses of known cyclic amino acids. Such compounds as gabapentin are useful in the treatment of anxiety and in the treatment and/or prevention of panic attacks. The partial N-terminal sequence of the gabapentin binding protein has been determined to be identical to the N- terminal sequence of the mature .alpha.2.delta. subunit of the L-type Ca2+ channel from rabbit skeletal muscle.

La présente invention concerne des utilisations nouvelles d'amino-acides cycliques connus. Des composés tels que la gabapentine sont utiles dans le traitement de l'anxiété et dans le traitement et/ou la prévention des accès de panique. Il a été déterminé que la séquence partielle N-terminale de la protéine de liaison de la gabapentine est identique à la séquence N-terminale de la sous-unité .alpha.¿2?.delta. mature du canal calcique de type L des muscles squelettiques du lapin.
