The effects of delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) on metaphit- (1-(1(3-isothiocyanatophenyl)-cyclohexyl) (piperidine)-) induced audiogenic seizures in adult male Wistar rats were studied.
Upon treatment, the rats were exposed to sound stimulation ( 100 +/- 3 dB, 60 s) at hourly intervals and the incidence and severity (running, clonus and tonus) of seizures were analyzed.
