pentylenetetrazole and Starvation

pentylenetetrazole has been researched along with Starvation in 5 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.

Starvation: Lengthy and continuous deprivation of food. (Stedman, 25th ed)

" infusion of phenobarbital to onset of loss of righting reflex showed that the starved animals required a larger body weight normalized dose and that they had higher phenobarbital concentrations in serum, serum water, brain and cerebrospinal fluid at the pharmacologic endpoint."7.67Kinetics of drug action in disease states. XX. Effects of acute starvation on the pharmacodynamics of phenobarbital, ethanol and pentylenetetrazol in rats and effects of refeeding and diet composition. ( Levy, G; Wanwimolruk, S, 1987)

" The present study investigated the possible influence of the following factors on the level of melanotropic activity in whole brain, cerebral cortex, cerebellum, midbrain, and brainstem of mouse and rat: age, sex, starvation; and of the following hormones or drugs administered by the intraperitoneal or intracerebral route: norepinephrine, dihydroxyphenylalanine, pargyline, 6-hydroxy-dopamine, alpha-methyltyrosine methyl ester, reserpine, acetylcholine, pilocarpine, atropine, serotonin, p-chlorophenylalanine, pentobarbital, pentylenetetrazol, insulin, melatonin, and cycloheximide."3.65Melanotropic activity in extrahypophyseal regions of rodent brain: effect of age, hormones, and drugs.
