Özet
Objective: Studies on the actions of exogenous agmatine in experimental models have shown its anti-convulsant effects. However, there are no findings regarding the influence of agmatine on absence epilepsy. Therefore, we investigated the effects of the agmatine in the occurrence of spike-and-wave discharges (SWDs) in the Wistar Albino Glaxo Rijswijk rats (WAG/Rij) model of genetic absence epilepsy.
