Anticonvulsant effects of nimodipine and two novel dihydropyridines (PCA 50922 and PCA 50941) against seizures elicited by pentylenetetrazole and electroconvulsive shock in mice.
    Brain research, 1998, Jun-15, Volume: 796, Issue:1-2

    In animal models of epilepsy, calcium entry blockers have shown anticonvulsant properties. We studied the antiepileptic effects of nimodipine and two novel dihydropyridines, a calcium antagonist (PCA 50922) and a calcium agonist (PCA 50941), on pentylenetetrazole seizure and maximal electroshock seizure (MES) in mice. Anticonvulsant profile of nimodipine and PCA 50922 was similar to that of clonazepam, but markedly different from that of phenytoin. None of the doses of the PCA 50941 showed anticonvulsant effect.
