Glutaric acidemia type I (GA-I) is an inherited metabolic disease characterized by accumulation of glutaric acid (GA) and seizures. The intrastriatal GA administration in rats has been used as an animal model to mimic seizures presented by glutaric acidemic patients. m-Trifluoromethyl diphenyl
The present study investigated the role of the glutathione system in seizures induced by diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)(2) (50 mg/kg) in rat pups (post natal day, 12-14). Reduced glutathione (GSH) (300 nmol/site; i.c.v.), administered 20 min before (PhSe)(2), abolished the appearance of seizures,
The present study investigated the anticonvulsive effect of the disubstituted diaryl diselenides diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)(2), m-trifluoromethyl-diphenyl diselenide (m-CF(3)-C(6)H(4)Se)(2), p-chloro-diphenyl diselenide (p-Cl-C(6)H(4)Se)(2) and p-methoxyl-diphenyl diselenide (p-CH(3)O-C(6)H(4)Se)(2)
The aims of the present study were to investigate the possible involvement of glutamatergic system in seizures induced by diphenyl diselenide in rat pups (postnatal day, 12-14) and to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in seizures induced by diphenyl diselenide/glutamate. Glutamate (4 g/kg of
OBJECTIVE
The involvement of the GABAergic system in seizures induced by diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)₂ in rat pups was investigated.
METHODS
To this end, the effect of aminooxyacetic acid hemihydrochloride (AOAA, 20 mg/kg; by intraperitoneal route, i.p.), a GABA-T inhibitor; DL-2,4-diamino-n-butyric
In the present study the potential neurotoxicity of diphenyl diselenide, as measured by the manifestation of seizures in rat pups (postnatal days, PND, 12-14) was evaluated. The results suggest that the latency for the appearance of tonic-clonic seizures, characterized by rearing and falling of rat
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the interaction between a classic GABAergic antagonist -- pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) with an organoselenium compound -- diphenyl diselenide (PhSe)(2) and with the metal chelating agent -- 2,3 dimercaptopropanol (BAL). Mice were pre-treated with 150
In this work was investigated the effect of pre-treatment with (PhSe)(2) and (PhTe)(2) on chemical seizure and 4-aminopyridine-induced lethality in mice. Additionally, lipid peroxidation levels of whole brain after treatment with 4-aminopyridine and effect of pre-treatment with (PhSe)(2) and
Anticonvulsant drugs are used to treat a wide range of non-epileptic conditions, including chronic pain. The aim of the present experiments was to examine analgesic activity of three new 3,3-diphenyl-propionamides, which had previously demonstrated anticonvulsant activity in the MES (maximal
The focused library of new amides derived from 3,3-diphenyl-2,5-dioxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl-acetic acid (2a-t) and 3,3-diphenyl-propionic acid (3a-t) as potential anticonvulsant agents was synthesized. The final products were obtained in the amidation reaction of the given carboxylic acid (2, 3) with
A series of novel N(1) -substituted-N(2) ,N(2) -diphenyl oxalamides 3a-l were synthesized in good yield by stirring diphenylcarbamoyl formyl chloride (2) and various substituted aliphatic, alicyclic, aromatic, heterocyclic amines in DMF and K(2) CO(3) . Also 2-substituted
Six derivatives of 3,3-diphenyl-2-pyrrolidone were synthesized and screened for anticonvulsant activity. The synthetic route involved a mono-N-demethylation of an intermediate N,N-dimethylaminonitrile with methyl chloroformate followed by cleavage of the carbamate group. Of the six derivatives,
A series of glycinamides, derivatives of diphenyl imidazolon-4-one was designed and obtained as potential ligands of the glycine binding site of NMDA receptors. The compounds were evaluated in vitro for their affinity for the glycine binding site of NMDA receptors using [3H]-L-689,560 as
Twenty-four new N-[(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)-methyl] derivatives of 3,3-diphenyl- (7-18) and 3-ethyl-3-methyl-pyrrolidine-2,5-dione (19-30) were synthesized and evaluated for their anticonvulsant activity in the maximum electroshock (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) seizure tests. The
A new series of 4,5-diphenyl-2H-1,2,4-triazol-3(4H)-one were synthesized to study the effect of cyclization of the semicarbazone moiety of aryl semicarbazones on the anticonvulsant activity. Structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by the use of their spectral data besides elemental
