diacetyl and Seizures

diacetyl has been researched along with Seizures in 3 studies

butane-2,3-dione : An alpha-diketone that is butane substituted by oxo groups at positions 2 and 3. It is a metabolite produced during the malolactic fermentation.

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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"While adult mice receiving picrotoxin (PTX) alone responded with clonic and tonic-clonic seizures, this response was greatly suppressed for mice simultaneously injected with 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM)."3.692,3-Butanedione monoxime protects mice against the convulsant effect of picrotoxin by facilitating GABA-activated currents. ( Brightman, T; Flynn, EJ; McArdle, JJ; Ortiz-Jimenez, E; Wu, WH; Ye, JH, 1995)
