Abstract
The latest research has shown that the new generation of antiepileptic drugs has neuroprotective on nervous system. On the other hand, the effect of levetiracetam, a new generation antiepileptic drug, on GIC in SH-SY5Y cells remains uncertain. This research aims to investigate the effect of levetiracetam on GIC and oxidant and antioxidant levels in SH-SY5Y cells. It is utilized SH-SY5Y cell line at this research. Four groups were formed to assess the impact of levetiracetam on SH-SY5Y cell death following GIC. While no treatment was administered to the control group, 10 mM glutamate was administered to the glutamate group for 24 hours (10, 25, 50 and 100 μg/ml). LEV at different concentrations was given to the levetiracetam for 24 hours. The levetiracetam + glutamate was pretreated with levetiracetam at several concentrations for 1 hour (10, 25, 50, and 100 μg/ml), which was followed by a 24-hour exposure to 10 mM glutamate. TAS and TOS levels in cells and cell viability were examined. Following the GIC, a 25 μg/ml-Levetiracetam improved cell viability in neuroblastoma cells dramatically (p < 0.05). LEV (25 ug/ml) + glutamate while enhanced TAS levels in neuroblastoma cells in comparison to the glutamate (p < 0.05), significantly reduced TOS levels (p < 0.05 Levetiracetam improves cell survival by reducing cell death following GIC in neuroblastoma cells. In the acute process, levetiracetam exerts a protective effect.
