phenobarbital and Chromosome-Defective Micronuclei

phenobarbital has been researched along with Chromosome-Defective Micronuclei in 5 studies

Phenobarbital: A barbituric acid derivative that acts as a nonselective central nervous system depressant. It potentiates GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID action on GABA-A RECEPTORS, and modulates chloride currents through receptor channels. It also inhibits glutamate induced depolarizations.
phenobarbital : A member of the class of barbiturates, the structure of which is that of barbituric acid substituted at C-5 by ethyl and phenyl groups.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"An increased number of chromosomal aberrations were observed after pre-treatment with PB."1.37N-Nitrosodiethylamine genotoxicity in primary rat hepatocytes: effects of cytochrome P450 induction by phenobarbital. ( Aiub, CA; Eckl, P; Felzenszwalb, I; Ferreira, F; Gadermaier, G; Oliveira, I; Ribeiro Pinto, LF, 2011)
" The results of all these studies, when compared with controls, showed that PB has both genotoxic and cytotoxic potential in apparently increasing intensity at longer periods of chronic feeding in mice, which would warrant due consideration in its long-term use on human subjects."1.32Assessment of the genotoxic and cytotoxic potential of an anti-epileptic drug, phenobarbital, in mice: a time course study. ( Biswas, SJ; Khuda-Bukhsh, AR; Pathak, S, 2004)
