valproic acid and Abnormality, Heart

valproic acid has been researched along with Abnormality, Heart in 22 studies

Valproic Acid: A fatty acid with anticonvulsant and anti-manic properties that is used in the treatment of EPILEPSY and BIPOLAR DISORDER. The mechanisms of its therapeutic actions are not well understood. It may act by increasing GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID levels in the brain or by altering the properties of VOLTAGE-GATED SODIUM CHANNELS.
valproic acid : A branched-chain saturated fatty acid that comprises of a propyl substituent on a pentanoic acid stem.

"The effects of antiepileptic drugs (AED) on infants during pregnancy and delivery were studied in a total of 82 epileptic mothers on various monotherapies; 29 cases receiving valproic acid (VPA), 20 receiving phenytoin (PHT), 18 on carbamazepine (CBZ) and 15 on phenobarbital (PB)."3.68[Effects of antiepileptic drugs on delivery and early childhood--comparison among mono-therapies of valproic acid, phenytoin, carbamazepine and phenobarbital]. ( Ishikawa, S; Izumi, M; Okada, H; Takeda, A; Tanaka, H, 1991)
"To characterize the effects of VPA on murine heart development, pregnant CD-1 mice were dosed with 400 mg/kg of VPA on gestational day (GD) 9."1.51Characterizing the effects of in utero exposure to valproic acid on murine fetal heart development. ( Belanger, CL; Maciver, RD; Nikolovska, A; Philbrook, NA; Winn, LM, 2019)
"Valproic acid is an effective anti-epileptic drug; however, when taken by pregnant women to treat epilepsy, it can produce cardiac developmental defects in fetuses."1.43The Phosphorylation State of GSK3β Serine 9 Correlated to the Development of Valproic Acid-Associated Fetal Cardiac Teratogenicity, Fetal VPA Syndrome, Rescued by Folic Acid Administration. ( Chu, SL; Ho, YL; Huang, PT; Liou, HH; Tsai, HJ; Yu, WH, 2016)
"Valproic acid (VPA) is a teratogenic drug used in pregnant women for the treatment of epilepsy and mood disorders."1.37Severe fetal valproate syndrome: combination of complex cardiac defect, multicystic dysplastic kidney, and trigonocephaly. ( Cetinkaya, M; Köksal, N; Ozkan, H; Yapici, S, 2011)
" The frequency of withdrawal symptoms was significantly related to the dose of valproate given to the mothers in the third trimester, and there was a tendency for both the frequency of the minor abnormalities and the major malformations to be related to the valproate dosage in the first trimester."1.29Malformations, withdrawal manifestations, and hypoglycaemia after exposure to valproate in utero. ( Ebbesen, F; Thisted, E, 1993)
"Spina Bifida, Congenital Heart Defects, Clefts, Diaphragmatic Hernia and Trisomy 18 were more frequent than expected among babies with maternal epilepsy."1.27Maternal epilepsy and birth defects: a case-control study in the Italian Multicentric Registry of Birth Defects (IPIMC).
