Berberine attenuates convulsing behavior and extracellular glutamate and aspartate changes in 4-aminopyridine treated rats
Objective(s): K+ channel blocker 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) stimulates the release of glutamate from nerve terminals and induces seizures. Berberine as a potential herbal drug exerts several pharmacological actions on the central nervous system including anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and neuroprotective properties. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of berberine on seizure onset and ti...
متن کاملFragile X mental retardation protein in the driver's seat.
Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common single gene cause of mental retardation, is securely associated with mutations in the fragile X mental retardation 1 gene, FMR1 (Fu et al. 1991; Verkerk et al. 1991; Feng et al. 1997; Musumeci et al. 1999; Hagerman et al. 2009). Nevertheless, identification of consequences of loss of the protein product of FMR1, the fragile X mental retardation protein ...
متن کاملGlutamate decarboxylase-immunoreactive neurons are preserved in human epileptic hippocampus.
The present study was designed to determine whether inhibitory neurons in human epileptic hippocampus are reduced in number, which could reduce inhibition on principal cells and thereby be a basis for seizure susceptibility. We studied the distribution of GABA neurons and puncta by using glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) immunocytochemistry (ICC) together with Nissl stains. Using quantitative compa...
متن کاملAltered expression of adrenocorticotropic hormone in the epileptic gerbil hippocampus following spontaneous seizure
We investigated the temporal alterations of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) immunoreactivity in the hippocampus after seizure onset. Expression of ACTH was observed within interneurons in the pre-seizure group of seizure sensitive gerbils, whereas its immunoreactivities were rarely detected in seizure resistant gerbil. Three hr after the seizure, ACTH immunoreactivity was significantly incre...
متن کاملDose-dependent effects of morphine on hippocampal seizure
Opiates have complex effects on seizure thresholds as these substances have both anti and proconvulsive actions in the mammalian brain. A reduction of inhibitory synaptic activity or enhancement of excitatory synaptic activity would be expected to trigger a seizure. This study is designed to determine how morphine and naloxone affect seizures induced by a low Mg2+ perfusate in the whole, intact...
