3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid and Seizures

3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid has been researched along with Seizures in 16 studies

3,4-Dihydroxyphenylacetic Acid: A deaminated metabolite of LEVODOPA.
(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)acetic acid : A dihydroxyphenylacetic acid having the two hydroxy substituents located at the 3- and 4-positions. It is a metabolite of dopamine.
dihydroxyphenylacetic acid : A dihydroxy monocarboxylic acid consisting of phenylacetic acid having two phenolic hydroxy substituents.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.

( Bowyer, JF; Tor-Agbidye, J; Yamamoto, B, 2001)
"In the seizure animals, neurotransmitter metabolites remained at low levels, as if the hypoxia had continued after the period of ischemia, inhibiting monoamine oxidase activity and, perhaps, neurotransmitter recapture."1.29Temporal profile of aminergic neurotransmitter release in striatal dialysates in rats with post-ischemic seizures. ( Allain, H; Bellissant, E; Bentué-Ferrer, D; Decombe, R, 1994)

"Convulsions are frequently observed in severe, acute cyanide intoxication."1.29Estimation of the convulsive effect of cyanide in rats. ( Cassel, GE, 1995)
"During tonic convulsions, the amplitude of the DOPAC oxidation peak significantly decreased to 75% of the peak height recorded prior to the injection of PTZ, and the minimum lasted for about 30 min; then the mean curve slowly recovered to the control level within 60 min."1.27Determination of neurotransmitter release into the caudate nucleus during convulsions induced by pentylenetetrazole using in vivo differential pulse voltammetry. ( Fujikawa, N; Mori, A; Shirasu, A; Yamamoto, M; Yokoi, I, 1986)
"All animals suffered tonic convulsions at 18."1.27Convulsant effect of lindane and regional brain concentration of GABA and dopamine. ( Gelpí, E; Rodríguez-Farré, E; Suñol, C; Tusell, JM, 1988)
"An investigation was made into the relationship between dopaminergic and EEG effects of gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) by comparing time-course and dose-response studies of these two actions of gamma-butyrolactone in rats implanted with permanent cortical electrodes."1.26An investigation of the relationship between the dopaminergic and electroencephalographic effects of gamma-butyrolactone.
