[ 1 ] - Anticonvulsant Effects of New 1, 4-Dihydropyridine Derivatives Containing Imidazolyl Moiety Against Seizures Induced by Pentylenetetrazole and Maximal Electroshock in Mice

Epilepsy is a chronic disorder of the brain affecting around 50 million people in the world.Up to 30% of epileptic patients do not respond to available drugs and medical therapies. In thispaper, anticonvulsant screening of 10 synthesized new derivatives of 1, 4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxamides was performed.Anticonvulsant activity was evaluated by intravenous and intraperitoneal pentylenetetr...

[ 2 ] - Docking, Synthesis and anticonvulsant activity of N-substituted isoindoline-1,3-dione

A series of compounds related to ameltolide were studied for anticonvulsant potential in the subcutaneous pentylenetetrazol (sc Ptz) test in mice. These compounds were synthesized and characterized by TLC followed by IR and H1NMR. In vivo screening data acquired indicate that most of analogs have the ability to protect against PTZ-induced seizure. Phenytoin (PHT) was employed as the reference p...

[ 3 ] - Creatine Revealed Anticonvulsant Properties on Chemically and Electrically Induced Seizures in Mice

Creatine exerts beneficial effects on a variety of pathologies in which energy metabolism and oxidative stress play an etiological role. Creatine supplements have shown beneficial effects on neurological disorders including Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and stroke. However, the potential benefits of creatine for patients with convu...

[ 7 ] - Antioxidant Potential, Hypoglycemic Effect and Safety of Ajuga chamaecistus Ging. ssp. tomentella (Boiss.) Rech. f. Aerial Parts

Background and objective: Ajuga species(Lamiaceae) are traditionally used in the treatment of jaundice, joint pain, sciatic nerve, and diabetes in different countries. The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities and safety of Ajuga chamaecistus ssp. tomentella. Methods: Antioxidant activity, ra...

[ 8 ] - Chitin Extraction from Cuttlebone and its Formulation into Topical Burn Gel

Introduction: Burns represent a large number of skin injuries. They have a wide variety of factors and they impose financial expenses and psychological damage. Wound infection control is one of the major problems in thermal injuries. The skin, that is the body’s main barrier against the preparation of bacteria, will be damaged during burn. In addition to causing pain, irritation, and inflammati...
