4-aminopyridine and Nerve Degeneration

4-aminopyridine has been researched along with Nerve Degeneration in 10 studies

Nerve Degeneration: Loss of functional activity and trophic degeneration of nerve axons and their terminal arborizations following the destruction of their cells of origin or interruption of their continuity with these cells. The pathology is characteristic of neurodegenerative diseases. Often the process of nerve degeneration is studied in research on neuroanatomical localization and correlation of the neurophysiology of neural pathways.

"Infusion of the K(+) channel blocker 4-aminopyridine in the hippocampus induces the release of glutamate, as well as seizures and neurodegeneration."7.70Seizures and neurodegeneration induced by 4-aminopyridine in rat hippocampus in vivo: role of glutamate- and GABA-mediated neurotransmission and of ion channels. ( Peña, F; Tapia, R, 2000)
"These results suggest that seizure activity induced by 4-aminopyridine is due to a combined action of excitatory amino acid release and direct stimulation of neuronal firing, whereas neuronal death is related to the increased glutamate release but is independent of seizure activity."5.30Relationships among seizures, extracellular amino acid changes, and neurodegeneration induced by 4-aminopyridine in rat hippocampus: a microdialysis and electroencephalographic study.
