| Summary: | Aim. Study of SS-68 impact on primary generalized convulsions in basic estimation tests of anticonvulsant action of agents.Material and methods. Study of the SS-68 impact on primary generalized convulsions included an estimation of anticonvulsant action with maximal electric shock, thiosemicarbazide and pilocarpine antagonism tests performed on white outbred male mice and rats.Results. SS-68 compound possesses dosage dependent anticonvulsant action in maximal electric shock test indicating its ability to prevent death of 100% animals and its activity in thiosemicarbazide and pilocarpine antagonism tests as well. In the maximal electric shock test SS-68 surpassed sodium valproate in its anticolvulsant activity.Conclusion. Neurotransmitter systems of the brain such as GABA, cholinergic and amino acid stimulant system as well as K+, Na+ and Ca2+ channels of neurons shall be the most possible molecular targets of SS-68 anticonvulsant action. Higher activity of SS-68 comparing with sodium valproate in the maximal electric shock test (increasing GABA content in central nervous system) can be related with its wide range of neurotropic action. |
