procyclidine and Seizures

procyclidine has been researched along with Seizures in 17 studies

Procyclidine: A muscarinic antagonist that crosses the blood-brain barrier and is used in the treatment of drug-induced extrapyramidal disorders and in parkinsonism.
procyclidine : A tertiary alcohol that consists of propan-1-ol substituted by a cyclohexyl and a phenyl group at position 1 and a pyrrolidin-1-yl group at position 3.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.

( Aas, P; Enger, S; Mariussen, E; Myhrer, T, 2013)
" The results showed that in the PRC anticonvulsant efficacy against soman-induced seizures (subcutaneously administered) was achieved by procyclidine or NBQX, but not by ketamine, scopolamine, caramiphen, or muscimol (Experiment 1)."7.76Roles of perirhinal and posterior piriform cortices in control and generation of seizures: a microinfusion study in rats exposed to soman. ( Aas, P; Enger, S; Myhrer, T, 2010)

"Procyclidine and propofol were considered as the most relevant double regimen to replace a previous triple regimen (procyclidine, diazepam, pentobarbital) against soman-induced seizures."5.33Pharmacological therapies against soman-induced seizures in rats 30 min following onset and anticonvulsant impact. ( Aas, P; Enger, S; Myhrer, T, 2006)

( Aas, P; Andersen, JM; Myhrer, T; Nguyen, NH, 2004)
" The treatment was given 1 and 5 min after exposure to a supralethal dose of nerve agents, and the results showed that the triple regimen successfully prevented or terminated seizures and preserved the lives of rats exposed to 5×LD50 of soman, sarin, cyclosarin, or VX, but solely 3×LD50 of tabun was managed by this regimen."3.81Supralethal poisoning by any of the classical nerve agents is effectively counteracted by procyclidine regimens in rats.

( Aas, P; Enger, S; Mariussen, E; Myhrer, T, 2013)
"Results from studies based on microinfusions into seizure controlling brain sites (area tempestas, medial septum, perirhinal cortex, posterior piriform cortex) have shown that procyclidine, muscimol, caramiphen, and NBQX, but not ketamine, exert anticonvulsant effects against soman-induced seizures."3.77Enhanced efficacy of anticonvulsants when combined with levetiracetam in soman-exposed rats. ( Aas, P; Enger, S; Jonassen, M; Myhrer, T, 2011)

"The procyclidine regimen has apparently capacities to serve as a universal therapy against soman intoxication in rats."1.39Two medical therapies very effective shortly after high levels of soman poisoning in rats, but only one with universal utility. ( Aas, P; Enger, S; Mariussen, E; Myhrer, T, 2013)

( Aas, P; Andersen, JM; Myhrer, T; Nguyen, NH, 2004)
"Soman induced profound limbic convulsions and 30% mortality, leading to increased blood-brain barrier permeability, neural injuries, learning and memory impairments, and physical incapacitation of survived rats pretreated with HI-6."1.32Protection by sustained release of physostigmine and procyclidine of soman poisoning in rats.
