Current understanding of the mechanism of action of the antiepileptic drug lacosamide
2015, Epilepsy ResearchCitation Excerpt :Some other AEDs, which are believed to act mainly on fast inactivation have been reported to also influence slow inactivation (Table 6). For example, while carbamazepine does influence slow inactivation of tetrodotoxin (TTX)-sensitive VGSCs (Errington et al., 2008; Sheets et al., 2008), it was reported to decrease the availability of slow inactivated TTX-resistant (Nav1.8-like) VGSCs in dorsal root ganglion neurons (Cardenas et al., 2006; Sheets et al., 2008). Phenytoin has also been reported to modulate the slow inactivation of VGSCs (Quandt, 1988; Niespodziany et al., 2013) but more detailed studies indicated that the drug binds to the fast inactivated state with slow binding and unbinding kinetics rather than to the slow inactivated state (Kuo, 1998; Kuo and Lu, 1997; Kuo and Bean, 1994).
B vitamins relieve neuropathic pain behaviors induced by infraorbital nerve constriction in rats
2012, Life SciencesCitation Excerpt :More recently, Song et al. (2009) showed that B1 vitamin treatment reduced neuronal hyperexcitability and lessen alterations of Na+ currents in injured dorsal root ganglia, and proposed that such mechanisms might contribute to its thermal antihyperalgesic effect. Considering that blockade of voltage-dependent Na+ channels in hyperexcitable neurons of the dorsal root or trigeminal ganglia has also been implicated in the analgesic effect of anticonvulsant drugs in neuropathic pain (Cardenas et al., 2006; Caviedes and Herranz, 2002; Priest, 2009), the antihyperalgesic synergism between carbamazepine and B vitamins may be the result of their combined action on this common target. However, the differential effects of the vitamins depending on the type of stimulus used (i.e. cold, heat or mechanical) renders their mechanisms of action even more intriguing and further studies are still necessary to elucidate this issue.
The distribution of low-threshold TTX-resistant Na<sup>+</sup> currents in rat trigeminal ganglion cells
2012, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :Probably, the greater than expected decrease in whole-cell Na+ current was the result of the accumulation of slow inactivation of high-threshold TTX-r Na+ channels. Even though typical steady-state inactivation experiments indicate maximum availability for NaV1.8 channels at −60 mV, changing the HP from −80 mV to −60 mV enhances use-dependent slow inactivation of these channels (Cardenas et al., 2006; Tripathi et al., 2006). The observed distribution of low-threshold Na+ currents among TG cells of different diameters was also consistent with the idea that these currents were mediated by NaV1.9 channels.
Lacosamide neurotoxicity associated with concomitant use of sodium channel-blocking antiepileptic drugs: A pharmacodynamic interaction?
2011, Epilepsy and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :Supporting this hypothesis, in rat dorsal root ganglion cells, blockade of sodium current mediated by carbamazepine was shown to be increased by the proportion of VGSC in the slow inactivated state. It was hypothesized that the drug might bind to a high-affinity site on the slow inactivated VGSC [17]. In the same experiment, carbamazepine was also shown to slow the return of the VGSC from the slow inactivated state to a normal available state, which might enhance the effects of lacosamide.
Functional and pharmacological properties of human and rat Na<inf>V</inf>1.8 channels
2009, NeuropharmacologyCitation Excerpt :Comparison of our V1/2 values for inactivation with previous work is not easy because of the wide range of experimental conditions used in previous work, particularly the differing holding potential and pulse protocols used. Among the previous publications on cultured cells or dorsal root ganglion cells, all used fluoride for the internal solution, although for a range of concentrations (Elliott and Elliott, 1993; Akiba et al., 2003; John et al., 2004; Dekker et al., 2005; Cardenas et al., 2006; Choi et al., 2006; Leffler et al., 2007; Zhao et al., 2007). Whether for the rat or human channel, our values for V1/2 are generally more negative than previously-obtained values.
