Evaluation of anticonvulsant and antiepileptogenic activity of Euphorbia nivulia in PTZ-induced kindling model of epilepsy in mice.

Researchers explored the anticonvulsant and antiepileptogenic activity of extracts from various plants, finding that an extract from Euphorbia nivulia showed concentration-dependent anticonvulsant effects and protection against seizure-induced mortality in mice. The extract also reduced the progression of epilepsy when tested against a chemical kindling model. Analysis of the extract's FT-IR spectra suggested the presence of novel compounds responsible for the observed effects. These findings could pave the way for further research on natural treatments for epilepsy.
