Abstract: | We studied the neuroprotective effect of a new selective anxiolytic afobazole on rats with bilateral focal ischemic stroke in the prefrontal cortex caused by photothrombosis. Intraperitoneal injection of 5 mg/kg afobazole 1 h after surgery and over the next 8 days (daily treatment) produced a neuroprotective effect. Afobazole was far superior to the reference cerebroprotective drug cavinton (4 mg/kg) by neuroprotective activity. __________ Translated from Byulleten’ Eksperimental’noi Biologii i Meditsiny, Vol. 145, No. 2, pp. 167–169, February, 2008 |
