Prostaglandin (PG) F(2α) is one of the major prostanoids biosynthesized by cyclooxygenases (COXs) from arachidonic acid. Although it has been reported that there is a selective surge in PGF(2α) production in the hippocampus during kainic acid (KA)-induced seizure activity, the precise
OBJECTIVE
To get more insight into molecular mechanisms underlying oxidative stress and its role in different types of seizure, in this study, oxidative byproducts of proteins, lipids and DNA, as well as, antioxidant enzyme activities were studied in adult patients with epilepsy.
METHODS
Study was
We investigated the influence of recurrent epileptic seizures on the arachidonic acid (AA) cascade in platelets and brain microvessels, using [(14)C]AA as a tracer substrate and chromatographic determination. The recurrent epileptic seizures of male Wistar rats were induced every second day with
