Tranexamic Acid, a Widely Used Antifibrinolytic Agent, Causes Convulsions by a γ-Aminobutyric AcidA Receptor Antagonistic Effect

TL;DR: TAMCA binds to the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) binding site of GABA(A) receptors in membranes from rat cerebral cortex and does not interfere with N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, indicating that TAMCA may induce hyperexcitability by blocking GABA-driven inhibition of the CNS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of stress protein HSP70 in nerve cells after status epilepticus in the rat.

TL;DR: The accumulation of the stress protein HSP70 was found to be an excellent marker for prolonged seizure related metabolic activity of neurons after kainic acid induced status epilepticus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regional heterogeneity in the distribution of neurotransmitter markers in the rat hippocampus.

TL;DR: The heterogeneity in the distribution of individual neurochemical markers allows insights into possible functional differences of hippocampal subregions and provides a relevant basis for future neurochemical investigations in this brain area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kainic acid-induced changes of serotonin and dopamine metabolism in the striatum and substantia nigra of the rat.

TL;DR: Levels of the putative neurotransmitters serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA) and their respective metabolites 5-HIAA and dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) was determined in the rat striatum after unilateral intrastriatal injection of the convulsive neurotoxin kainic acid.
