Anticonvulsant activity of Schiff bases of isatin derivatives.

TL;DR: N-methyl-5-bromo-3-(p-chlorophenylimino) isatin exhibited anticonvulsant activity in MES and ScMet with LD50 > 600 mg kg(-1), showing better activity than the standard drugs phenytoin, carbamazepine and valproic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anticonvulsant activity of hydrazones, Schiff and Mannich bases of isatin derivatives.

TL;DR: The essential structural features responsible for interaction with receptor site are established within a suggested pharmacophore and all the active compounds showed greater protection than sodium valproate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Triazole incorporated thiazoles as a new class of anticonvulsants: design, synthesis and in vivo screening.

TL;DR: Various 3-[4-(substituted phenyl)-1,3-thiazol-2-ylamino]-4-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiones (7a-t) were designed keeping in view the structural requirements suggested in the pharmacophore model for anticonvulsant activity to display a wide margin of safety with Protective index, median hypnotic dose (HD(50)
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of some 3-(arylalkylthio)-4-alkyl/aryl-5-(4-aminophenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives and their anticonvulsant activity.

TL;DR: A series of novel 3-[[(substituted phenyl)methyl]thio]-4-alkyl/aryl-5-(4-aminophenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazoles 21-31 were synthesized for evaluation of their biological properties and some of the tested compounds showed marginal activity against M. tuberculosis H37 Rv.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, anticonvulsant and CNS depressant activity of some new bioactive 1-(4-substituted-phenyl)-3-(4-oxo-2-phenyl/ethyl-4H-quinazolin-3-yl)-urea

TL;DR: It can be concluded that newly synthesized compounds possessed promising CNS activities after screening for anticonvulsant, CNS depressant and sedative-hypnotic activity in mice.

Antiepileptic Drug Mechanisms of Action

TL;DR: Established antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) decrease membrane excitability by interacting with neurotransmitter receptors or ion channels by inhibiting sodium channels, γ‐ami‐nobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptors, or calcium channels.
