riluzole and Neuromuscular Diseases

riluzole has been researched along with Neuromuscular Diseases in 1 studies

Riluzole: A glutamate antagonist (RECEPTORS, GLUTAMATE) used as an anticonvulsant (ANTICONVULSANTS) and to prolong the survival of patients with AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS.

Neuromuscular Diseases: A general term encompassing lower MOTOR NEURON DISEASE; PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DISEASES; and certain MUSCULAR DISEASES. Manifestations include MUSCLE WEAKNESS; FASCICULATION; muscle ATROPHY; SPASM; MYOKYMIA; MUSCLE HYPERTONIA, myalgias, and MUSCLE HYPOTONIA.

"In the wobbler mouse motor neuron disease (MND), we firstly evaluated the effect of riluzole, the only approved drug for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and compared it with that of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)."7.72Riluzole slows the progression of neuromuscular dysfunction in the wobbler mouse motor neuron disease. ( Ishiyama, T; Mitsumoto, H; Nakayama, C; Nishibe, H; Okada, R, 2004)
