Lacosamide improves biochemical, genotoxic, and mitochondrial parameters after PTZ-kindling model in mice.

Abstract:

:This study evaluated the effect of lacosamide (LCM) on biochemical and mitochondrial parameters after PTZ kindling in mice. Male mice were treated on alternative days for a period of 11 days with LCM (20, 30, or 40 mg/kg), saline, or diazepam (2 mg/kg), before PTZ administration (50 mg/kg). The hippocampi were collected to evaluate free radicals, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and the mitochondrial complexes I-III, II, and II-III, as well as Bcl-2 and cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) expressions. Hippocampi, blood, and bone marrow were collected for genotoxic and mutagenic evaluations. LCM 40 mg/kg increased latency and decreased percentage of seizures, only on the 3rd day of observation. The dose of 30 mg/kg only showed positive effects on the percentage of seizures on the 2nd day of observation. LCM decreased free radicals and SOD activity and the dose of 40 mg/kg were able to increase CAT activity. LCM 30 and 40 mg/kg improved the enzymatic mitochondrial activity of the complex I-III and LCM 30 mg/kg improved the activity of the complex II. In the comet assay, the damage induced by PTZ administration was reduced by LCM 20 and 30 mg/kg. The dose of 20 mg/kg increased COX-2 expression while the highest dose used, 40 mg/kg, was able to reduce this expression when compared to the group treated with LCM 20 mg/kg. Although LCM did not produce the antiepileptogenic effect in vivo, it showed the neuroprotective effect against oxidative stress, bioenergetic dysfunction, and DNA damage induced by the repeated PTZ administration.
