Anticonvulsant and Neuroprotective Activities of Phragmanthera austroarabica Extract in Pentylenetetrazole-Kindled Mice
Anticonvulsant and neuroprotective activity of Phragmanthera austroarabica extract were tested in pentylenetetrazole-kindled mice. All the chemical constituents of the plant extract were identified. Additionally, the extract was standardized and proved to contain total phenolic contents equal to 379.92 ± 1.32 mg gallic acid equivalents/g dry plant extract. Induction of kindling was achieved by ...
متن کاملInfluence of calcium channel blockers on anticonvulsant and antinociceptive activities of valproic acid in pentylenetetrazole-kindled mice.
BACKGROUND Comorbidities of epilepsy comprise some pain disorders, including acute nociceptive pain, therefore, antiepileptic drugs can prove efficacy in the management of this kind of pain albeit with several adverse reactions. The current study aimed to evaluate the modulatory effects of calcium channel blockers on the anticonvulsant and antinociceptive effects of valproic acid (VPA) in penty...
متن کاملInfluence of carbenoxolone on the anticonvulsant efficacy of phenytoin in pentylenetetrazole kindled rats.
Abnormal synchronized neuronal discharges mediated by gap junctions have an important role in epileptic seizures. The analysis of anticonvulsant drugs acting on gap junctions is still a priority in epilepsy research. Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the effect of carbenoxolone, a gap junction blocker, on the anticonvulsant efficacy of phenytoin in pentylenetetrazole kind...
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 کاملAnticonvulsant Effect of Alcea aucheri on Pentylenetetrazole and Maximal Electroshock Seizures in Mice
Introduction: This study was designed to investigate the possible anticonvulsant effect of acute administration of an aqueous extract of flowers of Alcea aucheri (EFA) in a seizure model. Methods: Seizures were induced in male adult Swiss mice by administration of pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) or Maximal Electroshock (MES). Mice were randomly subjected to receive saline, EFA (8.75-175 mg.kg-1), or d...
