“…Although water consummation was constant during 9 weeks in the water-only groups, we noted an increase by 10% in the intake of AEAPR containing water in both unhandled (UC) and handled (HC) conditions, likely due to the presence of sugars in the plant extract. 27 At the end of the treatment, water consumption returned to baseline levels (Figure S1B, Table S2). Whether handled or not, treated or not, all animals gained weight in a similar manner (Figure S1C, Table S2).…”

Objective: Aqueous extract of Anacyclus pyrethrum (AEAPR) is used in traditional medicine to treat epilepsy, but whether it has antiseizure properties has not been established. Because extracts of the plant have antioxidant properties, we hypothesized that it may be particularly potent in conditions associated with oxidative stress, in particular social isolation.Methods:We addressed these objectives in the pilocarpine experimental model of epilepsy using socially isolated rats maintaining contacts with (handled) and without (unhandled) positive handling strategy. Both groups were further divided into treated (AEAPR was added to the drinking water) and untreated groups.Continuous (24/7) electroencephalography (EEG) recordings started in the sixth week after status epilepticus (SE) with a predrug control period of 3 weeks, followed by 3 weeks of daily treatment with AEAPR or water, and finally a postdrug control period of 3 weeks. At the end of the experimental procedure, we measured lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and catalase activities in the hippocampus to assess oxidative stress.Results:A. pyrethrum treatment significantly reduced seizure frequency by 51% and 57%, duration by 30% and 33%, and severity by 31% and 26% in isolated handled and unhandled rats, respectively. The beneficial effects on seizures were still present 3 weeks after the end of the treatment. The treatment reduced lipid peroxidation as well as SOD, GPx, and catalase activities.Significance: We conclude that A. pyrethrum has antiseizure and antioxidant properties, even in social isolation conditions.
