Abstract

In this study, the anti-convulsant effect of Sinapis alba seed oil and its combination with sodium valproate was evaluated in Wistar albino rats using the lithium-pilocarpine Status Epilepticus (SE) model. The experimental groups included: Group I - normal control; Group II - disease control; Group III - Sinapis alba seed oil; Group IV - sodium valproate; Group V - Sinapis alba seed oil + ½ dose sodium valproate. Antioxidant markers and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) levels were measured from the brain samples. The pathological changes were also determined using Cresyl violet staining. Sinapis alba oil did not prevent rats from developing status epilepticus but reduced the intensity and frequency of occurrence. Oil administration increased antioxidant levels and decreased lipid peroxide levels as well. The combination of oil and sodium valproate showed a synergistic effect in the status epilepticus model. The study results show that Sinapis alba can be used as an adjuvant in status epilepticus along with other antiepileptic drugs.
