2019, Environmental PollutionCitation Excerpt :This compound is the second-most frequently used antiepileptic drug in Israel (Berman et al., 2016) and it is popular worldwide. It acts as a voltage-dependent sodium channel blocker (Cheung et al., 1992; Leach et al., 1986; Perucca, 2005). LTG is excreted in the urine mainly in its glucuronide form, while approximately 10% is excreted as the parent compound (Garnett, 1997; Posner et al., 1989).
The anticonvulsant lamotrigine enhances I <inf>h</inf> in layer 2/3 neocortical pyramidal neurons of patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy
2019, NeuropharmacologyCitation Excerpt :The human layer 2/3 neurons studied here were typical in their morphology, as shown by the examples in Fig. 1 (upper row), and firing behaviour upon rectangular current injections (Fig. 1 A lower row). Moreover, they reacted to LTG with a progressive reduction of the amplitudes of action potentials and an increase in late interspike intervals as expected for a potent Na+ channel inhibitor (Cheung et al., 1992). In 2 neurons the action potential firing ceased at the same current amplitude that elicited repetitive action potentials under control conditions.
D2 dopamine receptors modulate neuronal resonance in subthalamic nucleus and cortical high-voltage spindles through HCN channels
2016, NeuropharmacologyCitation Excerpt :LTG, an HCN channel agonist (Poolos et al., 2002), injected locally into the STN with the D2 antagonist, could counteract the effect induced by the D2 antagonist. But LTG also can block the voltage-activated sodium channels (Cheung et al., 1992) which may be one of possible targets for inhibiting the HVSs activities. However, blocking sodium channel only is not enough to explain the antiepileptic effect of LTG (Coulter, 1997).
