The effect of agonist and antagonist of Nociceptine/Orphanin FQ receptor on seizure and cognitive dysfunction in experimental model of temporal lobe epilepsy in male rat
Background: Temporal lobe epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by spontaneous seizures, learning and memory deficiency, loss of neurons, mossy fiber sprouting and tissue apoptosis. This study was to investigate the effect of NOP receptor agonist (MCOPPB) and antagonist (SB612111) on seizure and cognitive dysfunction and histological studies in experimental model of temporal...
متن کاملThe protective effect of carvacrol on kainic acid-induced model of temporal lobe epilepsy in male rat
Background and Objective: Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a chronic neurological disorder with spontaneous recurrent seizures and abnormal intracranial waves. Since the role of oxidative stress in the occurrence of epilepsy is inevitable, it seems that the use of antioxidants can prevent some of the complications resulting from this disease. This study was designed to assess the protective effe...
متن کاملP 90: The Role of miR-146a in Inflammatory Process of Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE): Implication for Therapy
Epilepsy is the third most common chronic brain disorder which is characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate seizures. Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common type of refractory epilepsy. Increasing evidence indicates that neuroinflammation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of MTLE. Hundreds of micro-RNAs have been found to be abnormally expressed in epilept...
متن کاملQuantitative Analysis of GABAA Gamma Receptor Subunits in the Developing Embryonic Chick Forebrain
Objective(s) In this study we investigated the expression of GABAA receptor subunits during brain development. These receptors may change in the embryonic chick forebrain. Materials and Methodes The expression levels of four types of GABAA receptor gamma subunits (γ1, γ2, γ3 and γ4) were quantified in the embryonic chick forebrain at 32 hr, 3, 7, 14, and 20 days of incubation and day one aft...
متن کاملPrenatal stress increased γ2 GABAA receptor subunit gene expression in hippocampus and potentiated pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure in rats
Objective(s): Stress during pregnancy is able to bring extensive effects on neurobehavioral development in offspring. The GABAergic system plays a pivotal role in neuronal excitability, which can be affected by prenatal stress (PS). This study aimed to evaluate impact of the PS on γ2 subunit of gamma-aminobutyric acid A (GABAA) receptor gene expression in the hippocamp...
