چکیده
conditions and is characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures.1 Understanding the pathophysiology of seizure initiation and termination has important implications for our ability to manage seizure disorders, and for the potential development of novel anti-epileptic agents. Previous research in our laboratory2 and others3-5 have shown that cannabinoid compounds such as WIN55,212-2 are anti-epileptic compounds in both in vitro and in vivo studies. We further demonstrated that the antiepileptic effect of cannabinoids was mediated through the central cannabinoid type 1 receptors Abdulmonem A. Al-Hayani, DipFMS, PhD.
