The present study was performed to further evaluate the contribution of antimuscarinic activity and hypoglycaemia to the development of scopolamine-induced convulsions in fasted mice after food intake. The effects of anticonvulsant drugs on convulsions were also evaluated. Antimuscarinic drugs
Food intake triggers convulsions in fasted mice and rats treated with antimuscarinic drugs, scopolamine or atropine. Most of the drugs produced anticonvulsant efficacy in these convulsions have sedative effects. Thus, the present study was performed to evaluate the contribution of sedation in the
Because of case reports suggesting that use of transdermal scopolamine might be associated with the subsequent development of seizures, a retrospective cohort study was performed with computerized Medicaid claims data. Patients receiving transdermal scopolamine were compared with patients receiving
We recently reported that scopolamine pretreated mice fasted for 48 h developed clonic convulsions soon after they were allowed to eat ad libidum. Pretreatment with MK-801, the non-competitive NMDA antagonist, decreased the incidence of these convulsions. We suggested that a possible
We recently reported that scopolamine pretreated mice fasted for 48 h developed clonic convulsions soon after they were allowed to eat a small amount of food for 30 s. The present experiments were performed to determine whether animals also develop convulsions when they were allowed to eat ad
The present study was conducted to evaluate scopolamine-induced convulsions in fasted mice after food intake effects on the cortical electroencephalogram (EEG). Continuous EEG recordings were taken with Neuroscan for 10 min in freely moving mice with six chronic cortical electrode implants. Animals
The present study was performed to evaluate the role(s) of hypoglycemia, changes in [(3)H]glutamate binding kinetics and dopaminergic activity in the occurrence of scopolamine-induced convulsions in fasted mice after food intake. Plasma glucose levels and density (B(max)) and affinity (K(d)) of
It has been shown that mice and rats treated with antimuscarinic drugs, scopolamine or atropine, after fasting for 48 h develop convulsions soon after refeeding. The present study was performed to evaluate whether mice also develop convulsions after being deprived of food for 1-24 h. The effect of
Treatment of fasted mice and rats with the nonselective muscarinic antagonist, scopolamine or atropine, causes convulsions after food intake. This study evaluated the effect of fasting on the expression of M1 and M2 muscarinic receptors in the brain regions, the relationship between receptor
The relationship between amygdaloid brain-stimulation reward and the evolution of seizure activity was evaluated in this study. Current levels that maintained optimal intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS) rates were found to be lower than the minimal current intensity required to elicit an
The effects of midazolam (MDZ), diazepam (DZ) and scopolamine (SCP) therapies on soman-induced electrocorticogram (ECoG) and biceps femoris electromyogram (EMG) activities and brain lesions were assessed in male rats. Animals received pyridostigmine (26 micrograms/kg, im) 30 min before soman (87.1
Food intake triggers convulsions in fasted BALB/c mice and Wistar albino rats treated with antimuscarinic drugs, scopolamine or atropine. Inbred strain studies have yielded considerable information regarding genetic influences on seizure susceptibility and factors contribute to epileptogenesis in
Control of seizure activity is critical to survival and neuroprotection following nerve agent exposure. Extensive research has shown that three classes of drugs, muscarinic antagonists, benzodiazepines, and N-methyl-D: -aspartate antagonists, are capable of moderating these seizures. This study
The efficacy of anticonvulsant therapies to stop seizure activities following organophosphorus nerve agents (NAs) has been documented as being time-dependent. We utilized the guinea pig NA-seizure model to compare the effectiveness of phencynonate (PCH) and scopolamine (SCP) when given at the early
Brahmi vati (BV) is an Ayurvedic polyherbal formulation used since ancient times and has been prescribed in seizures associated with schizophrenia and related memory loss by Ayurvedic practitioners in India. The aim of the study was to investigate these claims by evaluation of anticonvulsant,
