pentylenetetrazole and Depression, Involutional

pentylenetetrazole has been researched along with Depression, Involutional in 2 studies

Pentylenetetrazole: A pharmaceutical agent that displays activity as a central nervous system and respiratory stimulant. It is considered a non-competitive GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID antagonist. Pentylenetetrazole has been used experimentally to study seizure phenomenon and to identify pharmaceuticals that may control seizure susceptibility.
pentetrazol : An organic heterobicyclic compound that is 1H-tetrazole in which the hydrogens at positions 1 and 5 are replaced by a pentane-1,5-diyl group. A central and respiratory stimulant, it was formerly used for the treatment of cough and other respiratory tract disorders, cardiovascular disorders including hypotension, and pruritis.

Depression, Involutional: Form of depression in those MIDDLE AGE with feelings of ANXIETY.

" In the pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure model, 1, 5, or 10 mg/kg vortioxetine demonstrated a significant dose-dependent decrease in mean spike frequency, an increase in the latency to minor and major seizures, and a decrease in total duration of major seizure and convulsion stage."8.02Vortioxetine increases absence-like seizures in WAG/Rij rats but decreases penicillin- and pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures in Wistar rats.
