dihydroxyacetone/癲癇性発作

Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) effectively antagonized the lethal effect of cyanide in mice and rabbits, particularly if administered in combination with thiosulfate. Oral DHA (2 and 4 g/kg) given to mice 10 min before injection (i.p.) of cyanide increased the LD50 values of cyanide from 5.7 mg/kg to 12 and

Potassium cyanide (CN) intoxication in mice was found to be effectively antagonized by dihydroxyacetone (DHA), particularly if administered in combination with another CN antidote, sodium thiosulfate. Cyanide-induced convulsions were also prevented by DHA treatment, either alone or in combination

Sustained, generalized seizure activity was induced in anaesthetized (70% N2O), paralyzed and artifically ventilated rats by i.p. DL-homocysteine thiolactone in a dose of 11 mmol/kg. Epileptic discharges in the EEG were accompanied by marked perturbation of tissue metabolites. There was a fall in

An infant with neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy experienced extreme hypotonia and virtually continuous convulsions at four months of age and died. Light and electron microscopic examination revealed evidence of myopathy and the presence of mitochondrial inclusions. Concentrations of very long-chain

Clinical and laboratory findings of Zellweger syndrome (ZS) patients diagnosed at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center (KFSH & RC), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia over a period of 10 years are presented in this report. Eleven patients (nine females and two males) from 2 to 4 months old were

1. Acute NH(4) (+) toxicity was studied by using a new apparatus that removes and freezes the brains of conscious rats within 1s. 2. Brains were removed and frozen 5min after intraperitoneal injection of ammonium acetate (2-3min before the onset of convulsions). Arterial [NH(4) (+)] rose from less

We diagnosed a unique peroxisomal disorder in a 32-year-old man with profound mental retardation, mild facial dysmorphism, retinal pigmentary degeneration, seizures, and sensorineural deafness. Although plasma very-long-chain fatty acid profile suggested X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, marked

The effects of the convulsant methionine sulfoximine (MSO) on the glucose pathway have been investigated in mouse and rat brain. The key gluconeogenic enzyme fructose-1,6-biphosphatase (FBPase) (EC 3.1.3.11) was immunostained by rat anti-FBPase antibody. The rat cortex slices were very lightly

A mentally retarded girl with epileptic seizures is described. Urinary organic acid screening revealed a massive excretion of glyceric acid, a normally barely detectable metabolite. Hyperglycinemia was not observed. Capillary gas chromatography of the O-acetylated (-)-menthyl ester of urinary

A male infant with typical clinical and biochemical findings of Zellweger syndrome, but in whom hepatic peroxisomes were detected by electron microscopy, had profound hypotonia, hepatomegaly, typical facial appearance including large fontanelle and frontal bossing, convulsions, panaminoaciduria, and
