## Abstract Pentylenetetrazol‐induced seizures in rats lead to the breakdown of the blood‐brain barrier. We compared the disruption of the blood‐brain barrier during epileptic seizure in untreated rats and in rats treated with vitamin E or selenium. The rats were supplemented with nontoxic doses of
The effect of inhibiting endogenous brain thromboxane (TXB2) on pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures was studied using the thromboxane synthetase inhibitors OKY-1581 (20 mgikg) and UK 38,485 (50 mgikg). Both compounds selectively decreased ( > 90%) TXB2 production in brain measured after 2 min of con
The role of changes in blood-brain barrier permeability in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy remains uncertain. To test the hypothesis that brain microvessel permeability is nonselectively increased in hepatic encephalopathy we measured the blood-brain barrier permeability-surface area prod
