Antagonism of gamma-hydroxybutyrate-induced hypersynchronization in the ECoG of the rat by anti-petit mal drugs.

Abstract

Administration of gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) (200 mg/kg i.p.) in rats evoked a hypersynchronous electrocorticogram pattern which was antagonized by specific anti-petit mal agents, while other antiepileptic drugs exerted no influence, or even potentiated the effect of GHB. The specific sensitivity of the GHB-induced hypersynchrony to anti-petit mal agents suggests a possible use of this effect as a model for testing potential anti-petit mal agents.
