Objective: Harmaline and other beta-carbolines act as an inverse agonist for GABA-A receptors and cause central nervous system stimulation and anxiety; thus, it may act hypothetically as a potential seizure augmenter. To examine the hypothesis...

Background and Purpose: Minocycline is an anti-biotic and anti-inflammatory drug. In addition its

neuroprotective effects have been shown. As far as there is interaction between cell death and seizure, the aim

of this study...

Methods and Materials

haplophyllum Robustum plant collected from southeast of Iran. The leaves were dried and the

hydro-alcoholic extract...

including control, sham and three experimental (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg of extract) were used for I.P injections. Seizure was induced by pentylenetetrazol (45 mg/kg/I.P) injection. Finally the latent periods different stages convulsions were...

Purpose: Febrile seizures which are often caused by high fevers are the

most prevalent type of seizures that may be affected by Stress-inducing

factors during prenatal and postnatal periods. Noise stress also seems to...

. The experimental group was deeply anesthetized with Thiopental (daily) since 10 to 20 days of postnatal period, after maturation PTZ was injected (45 mg/kg/ip) to assay the sensitivity of mature rats to PTZ induced seizures and latent period for seizures expression...

Minocycline is known as a chemical with neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. In this study, the effects of minocycline on seizures induced by amygdala kindling in rats were studied...

Summary

The aim of this article was to describe the clinical management of a case with seizure, possibly due to

iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in a kitten. A 38-day-old female European shorthair cat was presented with

acute onset...

Background:

Current antiepileptic drugs are not able to prevent recurrent seizures in all patients. Orexins are excita-

tory hypothalamic neuropeptides that their receptors (Orx1R and Orx2R) are found almost in all major regions...

Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder that has many types, including generalized seizures that

involve cortical and subcortical structures. Previous study showed the anticonvulsant effect of

Ferula szowitsiana. In this study...
