Abstract
Acute administration of taurine produced a transient loss of susceptibility to photically induced seizures in photosensitive baboons, but failed to affect kindled amygdaloid convulsions in baboons, rats, and cats. In addition, it was totally ineffective in changing the course of spontaneous status epilepticus in kindled cats. These results suggest that a taurine-deficiency model of epilepsy applies only to certain types of seizure-generating conditions, apparently excluding kindled amygdaloid convulsions.Entities:
