Epileptic seizures induce structural and functional alterations on brain tissue membranes.
Epilepsy is characterized by disruption of balance between cerebral excitation and inhibition, leading to recurrent and unprovoked convulsions. Studies are still underway to understand mechanisms lying epileptic seizures with the aim of improving treatment strategies. In this context, the research on brain tissue membranes gains importance for generation of epileptic activities. In order to pro...

متن کاملDo seizures damage the brain? The epidemiological evidence.
Do seizures damage the brain? If they do, how often does it happen? The answers are very dependent on the type of research that is used to investigate the questions. Evidence has come from two areas of study that are of particular interest to paediatricians: the outlook for children who have febrile convulsions, and the prognosis after status epilepticus (in this paper febrile convulsions lasti...
متن کاملEffect of Ocimum basilicum hydro-alcoholic extract on oxidative damage of brain tissue following seizures induced by pentylenetetrazole in mice
Introduction: A relationship between epileptic seizures and brain tissue oxidative damage has been suggested. Ocimum basilicum (O. basilicum) has been shown to have beneficial effects including hypnotic and protective against tissue oxidative damage. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of O. basilicum hydro-alcoholic extract on oxidative damage of brain tissue following s...
متن کاملSystemic cholinergic agents induce seizures and brain damage in lithium-treated rats.
Administration of pilocarpine or physostigmine to rats treated with lithium chloride produced sustained limbic seizures, widespread brain damage, and increased concentrations of D-myo-inositol-1-phosphate (a metabolite of the phosphoinositides, lipids involved in membrane receptor function) in the brain. The syndrome was preventable with atropine. The physostigmine doses and concentrations of b...
