Title

EFFECT OF NIMODIPINE ON LINDANE-INDUCED SEIZURES IN MICE

Abstract

NIMODIPINE is dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker which is widely used in a variety of cardiovascular ailments. A number of studies have shown that calcium channel blockers have anticonvulsant effect in a range of animal SEIZURE models (but not in all animals). LINDANE, an organochlorine insecticide, is widely used as a pesticide in agriculture and antiectoparasites in human and veterinary medicine. It has been shown that LINDANE is a SEIZURE-inducing agent. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of NIMODIPINE on LINDANE-induced SEIZUREs in MICE. In this experimental study, animals were pretreated with different doses of NIMODIPINE (2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 40 mg/kg) intraperitonealy, 30 min before intraperitoneal injection of LINDANE (50 mg/kg). After injection of LINDANE, clonic and tonic SEIZUREs were investigated. Our results showed that NIMODIPINE dose dependently decreases LINDANE-induced SEIZUREs. NIMODIPINE 5 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg had the least (p<0.05) and greatest (p<0.001) anticonvulsant effects, respectively. Our results suggested that NIMODIPINE possessed anticonvulsant activity probably through its antagonistic effect on voltage-gated calcium channels.
