Lithium Co-administration with rutin improves post-stroke neurological outcomes via suppressing Gsk-3 β activity in a rat model
Free Radic Biol Med. 2023 Jul 4:S0891-5849(23)00522-1. doi: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.07.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCerebral ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of adult disability worldwide. Reperfusion is the only therapeutic option with a lot of side effects. In the current study, we investigated the efficacy of rutin and lithium co-treatment in improving post-stroke neurological outcomes in a transient global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury rat model. Middle-aged male rats were subjected to transient global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. NORT and Y-maze were used to assess the cognitive process...

COVID-19 Continuous-EEG Case Series: A Descriptive Study
Conclusions: In this observational case series of 16 patients with COVID-19 who were monitored with continuous video-EEG, most patients experienced a nonspecific encephalopathy. Clinical seizures and electrographic status epilepticus were the second most commonly observed neurological problem.

Risks and Benefits of Current and Novel Drugs to Treat Agitation in Alzheimer's Disease
Expert Opin Drug Saf. 2022 Oct 17. doi: 10.1080/14740338.2022.2136162. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: At present, no pharmacological interventions have been approved for the treatment of agitation in Alzheimer's disease (AD), an important neuropsychiatric symptom that has been linked to increased mortality and greater caregiver burden. Antipsychotics offer some benefit, but increase the risk of adverse events such as falls, extrapyramidal symptoms, stroke, and mortality. Over the past 10 years, several new and repurposed medications have shown promise for treating AD-associated agitation.AREAS COVERED: We revi...

Low-dose 7,8-Dihydroxyflavone Administration After Status Epilepticus Prevents Epilepsy Development
AbstractTemporal lobe epilepsy often manifests months or even years after an initial epileptogenic insult (e.g., stroke, trauma, status epilepticus) and, therefore, may be preventable. However, no such preventive treatment is currently available. Aim of this study was to test an antioxidant agent, 7,8-dihydroxyflavone (7,8-DHF), that is well tolerated and effective in preclinical models of many neurological disorders, as an anti-epileptogenic drug. However, 7,8-DHF also acts as a TrkB receptor agonist and, based on the literature, this effect may imply an anti- or a pro-epileptogenic effect. We found that low- (5  mg/kg),...

Lithium chloride promotes neural functional recovery after local cerebral ischemia injury in rats through Wnt signaling pathway activation
Folia Morphol (Warsz). 2022 Aug 2. doi: 10.5603/FM.a2022.0068. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLithium chloride (LiCl) has a significant neuroprotective effect in cerebral ischemia. However, to date, there is a paucity of evidence on the role of LiCl in neural restoration after brain ischemia and the signaling pathways involved remain unclear. Therefore, to address this gap, the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model was used to simulate human ischemia stroke. Male SD rats were given MCAO for 90 min followed by reperfusion, and Dickkopf-1(DKK1, 5.0 μg/kg) was administered half an hour before MCAO. Rats were then ...
