The effect of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition on pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure threshold in mice [PDF]
Fiyz̤, 2018 Background: Previous studies have shown the protective effect of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme in development of convulsions. However, involvement of COX-2 in the pathogenesis of epilepsy is not yet well-known. The present study was designed to investigate

The Contribution of Normal Pregnancy to Eclampsia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Eclampsia, clinically defined as unexplained seizure in a woman with preeclampsia, is a life threatening complication unique to the pregnant state. However, a subpopulation of women with seemingly uncomplicated pregnancies experience de novo seizure ...

Magnesium sulfate treatment reverses seizure susceptibility and decreases neuroinflammation in a rat model of severe preeclampsia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Eclampsia, defined as unexplained seizure in a woman with preeclampsia, is a life-threatening complication of pregnancy with unclear etiology. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) is the leading eclamptic seizure prophylactic, yet its mechanism of action remains ...

Effect of different agonistic experiences on behavioural seizures in fully amygdala kindled rats [PDF]
, 1992 Fully amygdala kindled rats were exposed to two different inter-male agonistic experiences in order to study the interaction between epilepsy and acute social stress.

Connexin36 knockout mice display increased sensitivity to pentylenetetrazol-induced seizure-like behaviors [PDF]
, 2010 Large-scale synchronous firing of neurons during seizures is modulated by electrotonic coupling between neurons via gap junctions. To explore roles for connexin36 (Cx36) gap junctions in seizures, we examined the seizure threshold of connexin36 knockout (

Seizure threshold, hormones and anti epileptic drugs
Universa Medicina, 2008 The concept of seizure threshold holds that everyone has a certain balance between excitatory and inhibitory forces in the brain. A low seizure threshold makes it easier for epilepsy to develop and easier for someone to elicit single seizure.
