Abstract
This study was designed so as to characterize the interactions between levetiracetam (LEV) and the conventional antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) clonazepam (CZP), ethosuximide (ETS), phenobarbital (PB), and valproate (VPA) in suppressing pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced clonic seizures in mice by use of type II isobolographic analysis. Adverse-effect profiles of the drugs in combination were determined and brain AED concentrations were measured. The combinations of VPA and ETS with LEV at the fixed-ratio of 1:2, CZP with LEV (1:20,000), and PB with LEV (1:20) were supra-additive (synergistic) in suppressing seizures. In contrast, VPA and ETS with LEV (1:1, 2:1, and 4:1), CZP with LEV (1:1000, 1:5000, and 1:10,000), and PB with LEV (1:1, 1:5, and 1:10) were additive. No adverse effects were observed. ETS significantly reduced brain LEV concentrations but no other pharmacokinetic changes were observed. The combinations of CZP with LEV (1:20,000); VPA and ETS with LEV (1:2); and PB with LEV (1:20) appear to be favorable combinations exerting supra-additive interactions in suppressing PTZ-induced seizures.

[description_short] => Une méthode simple pour quantifier objectivement la force musculaire des rats et souris et l'effet de drogues, toxines, maladies musculaires (ex: myopathie) et neurodégénératives. Cette mesure de force est souvent employée en association avec le test de coordination motrice ROTAROD: un sujet présentant une coordination normale montrera des résultats médiocres en cas de faible force musculaire. Un must pour vos recherches sur l'activité, la coordination et le contrôle musculaire: particulièrement utile pour vos études sur les maladies de Parkinson et Huntington.
