The effects of natural and synthetic sauvagine on locomotor activity and ECS-induced seizures were studied in DBA/2 mice. A dose-dependent activity depression was evident following the administration of both compounds. Moreover they exerted a protective effect against ECS-induced seizures. This effect was naloxone-reversible, suggesting the involvement of endogenous opioids. In both series of experiments natural sauvagine was more effective than the synthetic compound.

Abstract
The effects of natural and synthetic sauvagine on locomotor activity and ECS-induced seizures were studied in DBA/2 mice. A dose-dependent activity depression was evident following the administration of both compounds. Moreover they exerted a protective effect against ECS-induced seizures. This effect was naloxone-reversible, suggesting the involvement of endogenous opioids. In both series of experiments natural sauvagine was more effective than the synthetic compound.File in questo prodotto:
