Journal Article
Ion channels as targets for insecticides
TL;DR: The method with which the percentage of sodium channel population that needs to be modified to cause repetitive after-discharges can be measured accurately is developed and is applicable to other neuroactive drugs that act through the threshold phenomenon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Protective effect of boldine on oxidative mitochondrial damage in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
TL;DR: Results indicate that boldine may exert an inhibitory effect on STZ-induced oxidative tissue damage and altered antioxidant enzyme activity by the decomposition of reactive oxygen species and inhibition of nitric oxide production and by the reduction of the peroxidation-induced product formation.
Journal Article
Differential Action of Riluzole on Tetrodotoxin-Sensitive and Tetrodotoxin-Resistant Sodium Channels
TL;DR: One of the mechanisms by which riluzole exerts its neuroprotective action is to preferentially block the inactivated sodium channel of damaged or depolarized neurons under ischemic conditions, thereby suppressing excess stimulation of the glutamatergic receptors and massive influx of Ca++.
Journal Article
Effects of the Neuroprotective Agent Riluzole on the High Voltage-Activated Calcium Channels of Rat Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons
TL;DR: Riluzole inhibition of N- and P/Q-type calcium channels may result in reduced calcium influx at presynaptic terminals, which thereby decreases excessive excitatory neurotransmitter release, especially glutamate, a mechanism known to cause neuronal death in ischemic conditions.
Journal Article
Modulation of sodium channels of rat cerebellar Purkinje neurons by the pyrethroid tetramethrin.
Jin-Ho Song,Toshio Narahashi +1 more
TL;DR: The selective toxicity of pyrethroids between mammals and insects could be explained quantitatively on the basis of sodium channel factors that include temperature dependence, intrinsic sensitivity and recovery rate and detoxication factors.
