pilocarpine and Drug Refractory Epilepsy

pilocarpine has been researched along with Drug Refractory Epilepsy in 13 studies

Pilocarpine: A slowly hydrolyzed muscarinic agonist with no nicotinic effects. Pilocarpine is used as a miotic and in the treatment of glaucoma.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Status epilepticus evoked by pilocarpine administeration was used to induce epilepsy in rats."3.81Dynamic Expression of MicroRNAs (183, 135a, 125b, 128, 30c and 27a) in the Rat Pilocarpine Model and Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Patients. ( Alsharafi, W; Xiao, B, 2015)
"In a rat model of status epilepticus (SE) induced by lithium and pilocarpine and refractory to midazolam, deep hypothermia (20 °C for 30 min) reduced EEG power over 50-fold, stopped SE within 12 min, and reduced EEG spikes by 87%."3.81Deep hypothermia for the treatment of refractory status epilepticus. ( Baldwin, R; Gezalian, M; Niquet, J; Wasterlain, CG, 2015)
"Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder."1.42Altered Expression of Intersectin1-L in Patients with Refractory Epilepsy and in Experimental Epileptic Rats. ( Li, M; Wang, S; Wang, X; Xu, X; Yang, X; Zhang, Y, 2015)
