Antagonism of picrotoxin-induced changes in dopamine and serotonin metabolism by allopregnanolone and midazolam

The effects of allopregnanolone and midazolam, given intracerebroventricularly, on the behavioral and biochemical effects of picrotoxin, were examined in a model of neurotoxin-induced seizures, in mice. After acute injections, midazolam (ED 50=39.8 nmol) and allopregnanolone (ED 50=11.0 nmol) produc...

description The effects of allopregnanolone and midazolam, given intracerebroventricularly, on the behavioral and biochemical effects of picrotoxin, were examined in a model of neurotoxin-induced seizures, in mice. After acute injections, midazolam (ED 50=39.8 nmol) and allopregnanolone (ED 50=11.0 nmol) produced similar and dose-dependent protection against picrotoxin-induced seizures. Picrotoxin given intraperitoneally at the ED 85 dose decreased significantly the concentration of serotonin (5-HT), dopamine (DA), homovanilic acid (HVA) and 3,4-dihydroxyindolacetic acid (DOPAC), in the mouse striatum and the frontal cortex, in the period of time immediately preceding the onset of seizures. A single injection of allopregnanolone more potently, in comparison to midazolam, antagonized the biochemical action of picrotoxin, abolishing its effects on DA, HVA and 5-HT concentration, in the mouse striatum and the frontal cortex. These results for the first time provide a direct argument for an involvement of central dopaminergic and serotonergic systems in the seizure development. The present data add also to the accumulating evidence suggesting a favorable pharmacological profile for some neurosteroids currently considered to have a future role in the management of epilepsy.
