“…Therefore, we hypothesized that iNOS is a potential promoter of epileptogenesis. Our studies in rats have also demonstrated that 1400W, when administered soon after KA‐induced SE, significantly reduced neuroinflammation and epileptogenesis and also reduced neuropathic pain following nerve injury (Puttachary, Sharma, Verma, et al, ; Staunton, Barrett‐Jolley, Djouhri, & Thippeswamy, ), suggesting its role in dampening neuronal hyperexcitability. In a recent organophosphate (OP) toxicity study, we showed that 1400W could suppress OP‐induced upregulation of iNOS, 3‐nitrotyrosine, gliosis, pro‐inflammatory cytokines/chemokines, neurodegeneration, and SRS (Putra et al, ).…”
