摘要
为证明癫痫发作早期一氧化氮(NO)抗发作效应,用NO合酶(NOS)抑制剂L-硝基精氨酸甲酯(L-NAME)对大鼠红藻氨酸(KA)诱导性发作进行干预,同时用分光光度法检测海马结构中NOS活性的早期变化。发现KA发作10min、30min组海马结构中NOS活性明显升高,而KA注射前30min给予L-NAME可显著抑制NOS活性的升高,这种抑制效应与大鼠KA发作中湿狗样摇动(WDS)的提早出现和发生次数增多显著相关。结果提示在KA诱导大鼠发作早期内源性NO具有明显的抗发作效用。
The anticonvulsant effect of endogenous nitric oxide (NO) on kainic acid (KA) induced seizures in rats was investigated.Intervention by L-nitro-arginine melthy ester (LNAME),an inhibitor of NO synthase(NOS),for KA induced seizures was conducted and the variation of NOS activity in rat hippocampal was determined spectrophtometrically.We found that KA caused overt behavioral abnormalities,such as wet dog shakes(WDS).NOS activity in rat hippocampus significantly increase 10 and 30 min after KA injection but was significantly inhibited by LNAME administration 30min prior to KA injection to a certain extent.The inhibition effect of LNAME was related to both earlier occurrence and greater numbers of WDS in KA seizures.The present results suggest that endogenous synthsis and release of NO may show a potent action of antiseizure in the early stage of KA induced seizures.
