Idazoxan

02/01/2000 - "Idazoxan, by itself (ranging from 5 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg), increased locomotor activity and improved the disability score with virtually no dyskinesias in three animals. "
07/01/2001 - "The severity of L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia improved after 20 mg idazoxan pretreatment, while there was no concommittant deterioration in the antiparkinsonian response to L-DOPA. "
01/01/2010 - " of idazoxan [(9 mg/kg, intraperitoneal (i.p.)]significantly alleviated L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia, whereas idazoxan (3 mg/kg, i.p.) did not affect dyskinetic behaviour.Bilateral"
07/01/2003 - "Alpha-2 antagonists, such as idazoxan, have recently also been reported to improve l-dopa-induced dyskinesias. "
07/01/2001 - "If this were the case, idazoxan would not be expected to reduce apomorphine-induced dyskinesia. "

09/01/2000 - "Idazoxan treatment only partially reversed the hypotension after alpha-MNA and had no effect on any of the baroreflex curves. "
01/01/1994 - "In contrast, idazoxan was more potent in reversing the hypotension elicited by i.c. "
01/01/2007 - "Idazoxan injected into the RVLM reversed the hypotension and completely restored the baroreflex curve at doses that did not affect the hypotension produced by the selective alpha2-adrenoceptor agonist alpha-methylnoradrenaline. "
09/01/2000 - "Rilmenidine shifted the RSNA baroreflex curve to the left while alpha-MNA shifted the curve to the right Idazoxan (13 nmol) reversed the hypotension and all RSNA effects of rilmenidine, while 2-MI (4 nmol) increased MAP 18% above the control and also reversed all RSNA parameters. "
03/01/1991 - "The initial phase was enhanced by SCH 23390 and converted to a transient hypotension by idazoxan. "

11/01/1990 - "Protection against ischemia-induced neuronal damage by the alpha 2-adrenoceptor antagonist idazoxan: influence of time of administration and possible mechanisms of action."
08/10/1993 - "Idazoxan, 0.1 mg/kg i.v., was cerebroprotective against mild ischemia, but ineffective against severe ischemia. "
12/01/1992 - "A reduced [3H]idazoxan binding was observed 1 h after ischemia in the temporal cortex and amygdala. "
01/01/1992 - "The effect of idazoxan, given in cerebro-protective doses, as a bolus of 0.1 mg.kg-1 immediately after ischemia followed by 10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 for 1 h, was also investigated. "
11/01/1990 - "When administered i.v. immediately after ischemia (0.1 mg/kg) and subsequently for 6 h (10 micrograms/kg/min), idazoxan significantly reduced neuronal damage in the hippocampus (from 84 to 26%) and in the vulnerable parts of the neocortex (from 15 to 1%). "

08/05/2014 - "Idazoxan reduces blood-brain barrier damage during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mouse."
02/09/2009 - "In the present study we investigated the effect of idazoxan on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of multiple sclerosis. "
02/09/2009 - "Idazoxan attenuates spinal cord injury by enhanced astrocytic activation and reduced microglial activation in rat experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis."
08/05/2014 - "We have previously shown that Idazoxan (IDA), an imidazoline 2 receptor ligand, is neuroprotective against spinal cord injury caused by experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in mouse, an animal modal of multiple sclerosis (MS). "
11/05/2012 - "Our previous studies showed that ligands to type 2 imidazoline receptors (I₂R), including 2-(2-Benzofuranyl)-2-imidazoline (2-BFI) and Idazoxan, were effective in reducing spinal cord inflammation caused by experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). "
