Neurodevelopmental effects of anti-epileptic drugs.
Use of medication with a desired effect on the central nervous system (as with anti-epileptic drugs) in children will undoubtedly cause concern about neurodevelopment. Data are emerging to suggest an effect of anticonvulsants on the developing brain of the unborn child when administered to mothers with epilepsy. This obviously requires detailed evaluation, especially when considering the risks ...
متن کاملNewer anti-epileptic drugs.
NEED AND PURPOSE OF REVIEW A number of newer anti-epileptic drugs have been developed in the last few years to improve the treatment outcomes in epilepsy. In this review, we discuss the use of newer anti-epileptic drugs in children. METHODS USED FOR LOCATING, SELECTING, EXTRACTING AND SYNTHESIZING DATA MEDLINE search (1966-2013) was performed using terms newer anti-epileptic drugs, Oxcarbazep...
متن کاملNew anti-epileptic drugs.
Epilepsy represents the most common serious neurological disorder, with a prevalence of 0.4 - 1%. Approximately 30% of patients are resistant to currently available drugs. New anti-epileptic drugs are needed to treat refractory epilepsy, improve upon current therapies, improve the prognosis of epilepsy and to prevent the epileptogenic process. Designing compounds with specific physiological tar...
متن کاملAssay for glutamine synthetase activity.
The use of phosphoenolpyruvate plus pyruvate kinase as an ATP-generating system in the assay for glutamine synthetase activity via the formation of gamma-glutamylhydroxamate from glutamate and hydroxylamine with crude tissue preparations is shown to give values far in excess of the true glutamine synthetase activity of the tissue. This is due to the generation of pyruvate, which reacts with hyd...
