The Anticonvulsant Effects of SR 57227 on Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Seizure in Mice
Recently, studies have shown that serotonin plays an important role in the control of seizure. However, the specific role of 5-HT receptor subtypes is not yet well described, in particular that of the 5-HT3 receptor. The present study was aimed to investigate the role of 5-HT3 receptor on the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced seizure in mice. Firstly, seizure latency was significantly prolonged ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Anticonvulsant Effects of Nimodipine and Ascorbic Acid on Pentylenetetrazole- Induced Seizures in Mice
Introduction: The mechanisms underlying the vulnerability of the brain to seizures remains unknown. Calcium ions influx and oxidative stress have been implicated in a variety of acute and chronic epileptogenic conditions. The present study was aimed at investigating the effects of nimodipine and ascorbic acid (vitamin C) alone and in combination on pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) - induced seizures ...
متن کاملAcute and Chronic Effects of N-acetylcysteine on Pentylenetetrazole-induced Seizure and Neuromuscular Coordination in Mice
Background: N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has been indicated against experimental seizures, but with relatively inconclusive results. This study was undertaken to evaluate whether NAC exerts a dose-dependent anticonvulsant effect and to determine NAC safe therapeutic dose range and its muscle-relaxant activity in both acute and chronic uses.Methods: Following intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of N...
متن کاملAnticonvulsant Effect of Guaifenesin against Pentylenetetrazol-Induced Seizure in Mice
Background: There have been some reports about the possible N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist activity of Guaifenesin. As drugs with a similar structure to Guaifenesin (i.e. Felbamate) and those with NMDA antagonist activity have been clinically used as anticonvulsants, the aim of this study was to determine whether Guaifenesin has an anticonvulsant effect in an animal model of seizure. ...
متن کاملCopper sulfate inhibits seizure activity induced by pentylenetetrazole in mice
Background and Objective: Copper is one of the main micronutrients of body which plays a key role as a cofactor in the function of metabolic enzymes. Previous studies have shown that copper sulfate () inhibits long-term potentiation (LTP) in slices of hippocampal CA1 region. Whereas LTP is involved in learning and epilepsy, it seems that copper effects on LTP could be associated with its effect...
