Epileptic seizures in cerebral venous sinus thrombosis: Subgroup analysis of VENOST study
(W B Saunders Co Ltd, 2020)
Purpose: the aim of this study is to evaluate the presence and prognostic impact of early seizures in cerebral venous sinus thrombosis patients (CVST). Method: VENOST is a retrospective and prospective national multicenter ...
The potential effects of anticonvulsant drugs on neuropeptides and neurotrophins in pentylenetetrazol kindled seizures in the rat
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020)
Purpose: Neuropeptides and neurotrophic factors are thought to be involved in epileptogenesis. This study aims to investigate the potential effects of anticonvulsant drugs on neuropeptides (galanin and neuropeptide Y) and ...
Beneficial Effects of Ibuprofen on Pentylenetetrazol-induced Convulsion
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2020)
Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is commonly used as an anti-inflammatory, anti-pyretic, and analgesic. Although some studies have focused on the anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic properties ...
Levodropropizine suppresses seizure activity in rats with pentylenetetrazol-induced epilepsy
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2019)
Background: Millions of individuals worldwide suffer from epilepsy, and up to 25% of patients have seizures that are resistant to currently available antiepileptic drugs. Hence, there continues to be a need for more seizure ...
Effects of the Calcium Channel Blocker Otilonium Bromide on Seizure Activity in Rats With Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Convulsions
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2021)
Millions of people suffer from drug-resistant epilepsy. New therapeutic approaches for removing this life-affecting disease are required. The activation of T-type calcium channels (TTCC) is one of the epileptogenesis ...
Immunosuppressant Tacrolimus Treatment Delays Acute Seizure Occurrence, Reduces Elevated Oxidative Stress, and Reverses PGF2? Burst in the Brain of PTZ-Treated Rats
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2023)
It is still an urgent need to find alternative and effective therapies to combat epileptic seizures. Tacrolimus as a potent immunosuppressant and calcineurin inhibitor is emerging as promising drug to suppress seizures. ...
Prolongation of absence seizures and changes in serotonergic and dopaminergic neurotransmission by nigrostriatal pathway degeneration in genetic absence epilepsy rats
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022)
Objective: Basal ganglia structures play an important role in the pathophysiology of absence epilepsy, known as remote control of absence seizures. We examined the role of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway in absence ...
Effects of Diclofenac Sodium on Seizure Activity in Rats with Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Convulsions
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, 2023)
Epilepsy is a disease which affects between 1 and 2% of the population, and a large proportion of these people do not react to currently available anticonvulsant medications, indicating the need for further research into ...
