Acute administration (0.4-12 mumol/kg, i.p.) of the NMDA antagonist D(-)CPPene (3-(2-carboxypiperazin-4-yl)propenyl-1-phosphonic acid; molecular weight = 250.2) dose-dependently reduced the incidence of sound-induced clonic seizures in genetically epilepsy-prone (GEP) rats. The ED50 value against cl
Human and experimental animal studies suggest a relationship between low Mn status and seizures. The genetically epilepsy prone rat (GEPR), which has low tissue Mn levels, was studied in the context of Mn supplementation. Manganese was provided at 45 pg/g diet (control) or 1000 pg/g diet (supplement
Genetically epilepsy-prone rats (GEPRs) which display tonic seizures (GEPR-9s) in response to acoustic stimulation were used in these studies. Other laboratories have shown that CEPR-9s have a reduced concentration of brain norepinephrine (NE). Previous reports have also indicated that audiogenie se
Astrocytes play a predominant role in energy metabolism and in the catabolism of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate, neurotransmitters critically involved in epileptic processes. We show specific astrocytic alterations in the genetic absence epilepsy rats from Strasbourg (GAERS). Spontaneo
