Effects of bencyclane on concussion following head injury in mice. 1985

N Ogawa, and S Tsukamoto, and S Ohara, and Y Hirose, and T Kishimoto, and A Mori

Bencyclane showed a dose-dependent anti-concussive effect with a duration of at least 60 minutes in an experimental model of concussion induced by head injury. This long-lasting effect cannot be explained only by the changes in the serum level of the agent or the increase in brain circulation due to its vasodilative action, both of which are of much shorter durations. Our findings suggest that bencyclane causes alterations in brain metabolism, which is partly responsible for reduction in the duration of the experimental concussion.

D011239 Prednisolone A glucocorticoid with the general properties of the corticosteroids. It is the drug of choice for all conditions in which routine systemic corticosteroid therapy is indicated, except adrenal deficiency states. Di-Adreson-F,Predate,Predonine,Di Adreson F,DiAdresonF
D001924 Brain Concussion A nonspecific term used to describe transient alterations or loss of consciousness following closed head injuries. The duration of UNCONSCIOUSNESS generally lasts a few seconds, but may persist for several hours. Concussions may be classified as mild, intermediate, and severe. Prolonged periods of unconsciousness (often defined as greater than 6 hours in duration) may be referred to as post-traumatic coma (COMA, POST-HEAD INJURY).

D001537 Bencyclane A vasodilator agent found to be effective in a variety of peripheral circulation disorders. It has various other potentially useful pharmacological effects. Its mechanism may involve block of calcium channels. Bencyclane Fumarate,Desoblit,Dilangio compositu,Fludilat,Fluxema,Halidor,Fumarate, Bencyclane,compositu, Dilangio
D013973 Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone A tripeptide that stimulates the release of THYROTROPIN and PROLACTIN. It is synthesized by the neurons in the PARAVENTRICULAR NUCLEUS of the HYPOTHALAMUS. After being released into the pituitary portal circulation, TRH (was called TRF) stimulates the release of TSH and PRL from the ANTERIOR PITUITARY GLAND.
