Effects of potassium channel blockers on baclofen-induced suppression of paroxysmal discharges in rat neo-cortical slices.

Abstract:

:Baclofen reduced the frequency and aborted the bursts of spontaneous paroxysmal discharges in rat neocortical slices maintained in magnesium-free medium. This action was prevented by pretreatment with barium or caesium, which each increased the ictaform burst frequency, amplitude and duration. 4-Amino-pyridine also increased the burst frequency but reduced the amplitude and did not completely prevent the action of baclofen. Evidently baclofen suppresses such discharges by opening potassium channels normally involved in limiting the burst activity.

  • Involvement of mitochondria on neuroprotective effect of sphingosine-1-phosphate in cell death in an in vitro model of brain ischemia.

    abstract::Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) has been demonstrated to be an important regulator of cell death and survival. Although it has been suggested that the sphingolipid may act as a neuroprotector in the cell apoptosis induced by traumatic brain injury, the mechanisms involved in this action are unknown. In this study, the r...
