nimodipine and Brain Inflammation

nimodipine has been researched along with Brain Inflammation in 2 studies

Nimodipine: A calcium channel blockader with preferential cerebrovascular activity. It has marked cerebrovascular dilating effects and lowers blood pressure.
nimodipine : A dihydropyridine that is 1,4-dihydropyridine which is substituted by methyl groups at positions 2 and 6, a (2-methoxyethoxy)carbonyl group at position 3, a m-nitrophenyl group at position 4, and an isopropoxycarbonyl group at position 5. An L-type calcium channel blocker, it acts particularly on cerebral circulation, and is used both orally and intravenously for the prevention and treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage from ruptured intracranial aneurysm.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"LPS-infused rats had significant memory deficits in the Morris water maze, and this deficit was ameliorated by treatment with nimodipine."1.42Calcium dysregulation via L-type voltage-dependent calcium channels and ryanodine receptors underlies memory deficits and synaptic dysfunction during chronic neuroinflammation. ( Adzovic, L; Crockett, AM; D'Angelo, HM; Hopp, SC; Kaercher, RM; Royer, SE; Wenk, GL, 2015)
" The animals were treated with either one of the drugs at previously defined relevant dosage or control."1.33Neuronal degeneration and iNOS expression in experimental brain contusion following treatment with colchicine, dexamethasone, tirilazad mesylate and nimodipine. ( Gahm, C; Holmin, S; Mathiesen, T; Rudehill, S, 2005)
