Abstract

The present study tested the effects of EUK-134, a synthetic superoxide dismutase/catalase mimetic, on several indices of oxidative stress and neuropathology produced in the rat limbic system as a result of seizure activity elicited by systemic kainic acid (KA) administration. Pretreatment of rats with EUK-134 did not modify the latency for or duration of KA-induced seizure activity. It did produce a highly significant reduction in increased protein nitration, activator protein-1- and NF-κB-binding activity, and spectrin proteolysis as well as in neuronal damage resulting from seizure activity in limbic structures. These results support the hypothesis that kainate-induced excitotoxicity is caused, at least in part, by the action of reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, they suggest that synthetic superoxide dismutase/catalase mimetics such as EUK-134 might be used to prevent excitotoxic neuronal injury.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
