General description
Levetiracetam is a member of the pyrrolidone family, which is a second-generation anti-epileptic drug (AED). It acts as a neuroprotective and hyperalgesic drug. Levetiracetam is implicated in cholinergic neurotransmission.[1]
Application
Levetiracetam has been used as an anti-epileptic drug to study its effects on glucose-mediated death.[2]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Levetiracetam is a pyrrolidine with antiepileptic activity.
Levetiracetam is a pyrrolidine with antiepileptic activity. Stereoselective binding of levetiracetam was confined to synaptic plasma membranes in the central nervous system with no binding occurring in peripheral tissue. Levetiracetam inhibits burst firing without affecting normal neuronal excitability, which suggests that it may selectively prevent hyper-synchronization of epileptiform burst firing and propagation of seizure activity.
