In this study, we evaluated the anticonvulsant and antioxidant effects of pioglitazone, a PPAR-γ agonist that is used in type2 diabetes, on pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure in mice. Methods: In t...

While the treatment was found to be highly effective, several adverse effects are associated with this compound. Among numerous central nervous system-related untoward effects, proconvulsant activity was reported. The purpose of this study was to ass...
متن کاملAnticonvulsant Activity of Viola tricolor against Seizures Induced by Pentylenetetrazol and Maximal Electroshock in Mice
Background: Recently, there has been much more interest in the use of medicinal plants in search of novel therapies for human neurodegenerative diseases such as epilepsy. In the present study, we investigated the anticonvulsant effects of Viola tricolor (V. tricolor) on seizure models induced by pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) and maximal electroshock stimulation (MES). Methods: Totally, 260 mice were ...
متن کاملIvabradine Reduces Seizures in Pentylenetetrazol- Kindled Mice
Methods: Forty Mice were randomly allocated into 4 equal groups; control, PTZ, diazepam (4mg/kg) and ivabradine (10 mg/kg) groups. Kindling model was produced by repeated i.p. administration of PTZ (40mg/kg), every other day for 9 days. Repeated PTZ treatment progressively increased the seizure score with the maximum score reached on day 9. Diazepam and ivabradine were administered intraperiton...
