摘要
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease characterized by a persistent susceptibility to seizures. Pharmaco-resistant epilepsies, impacting around 30 % of patients, highlight the urgent need for improved treatments. Neuroinflammation, prevalent in epileptogenic brain regions, is a key player in epilepsy, prompting the search for new mechanistic therapies. Hence, in this study, we explored the anti-inflammatory potential of pyrazole benzenesulfonamide derivative (T1) against pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) induced epilepsy-like conditions in in-vivo zebrafish model. The results from the survival assay showed 79.97 ± 6.65 % at 150 µM of T1 compared to PTZ-group. The results from reactive oxygen species (ROS), apoptosis and histology analysis showed that T1 significantly reduces cellular damage due to oxidative stress in PTZ-exposed zebrafish. The gene expression analysis and neutral red assay results demonstrated a notable reduction in the inflammatory response in zebrafish pre-treated with T1. Subsequently, the open field test unveiled the anti-convulsant activity of T1, particularly at a concentration of 150 μM. Moreover, both RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry findings indicated a concentration-dependent potential of T1, which inhibited COX-2 in zebrafish exposed to PTZ. In summary, T1 protected zebrafish against PTZ-induced neuronal damage, and behavioural changes by mitigating the inflammatory response through the inhibition of COX-2.
