The relationship between sodium channel inhibition and anticonvulsant activity in a model of generalised seizure in the ratCharles H Large
epartment of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Neuroscience Centre of Excellence for Drug Discovery, Medicines Research Centre, GlaxoSmithKline S p A, Via Fleming 4, Verona 37135, Italy
Epilepsy Res 85:96-106. 2009..We found that a higher unbound concentration of the drug in the brain was required for anticonvulsant efficacy than would be expected given its sodium channel blocking potency...
Neural network dysfunction in bipolar depression: clues from the efficacy of lamotrigineCharles H Large
Neurosciences Centre of Excellence for Drug Discovery, Medicines Research Centre, GlaxoSmithKline S p A, Via Fleming 4, 37135, Verona, Italy

Department of Neuropharmacology, Psychiatry CEDD, GlaxoSmithKline SpA, Via Fleming 4, 37135, Verona, Italy
Psychopharmacology (Berl) 181:415-36. 2005..Furthermore, lamotrigine, which can modulate glutamate release, may add to or synergise with atypical antipsychotic drugs, some of which may themselves modulate glutamate transmission...
The relationship between lamotrigine concentration and change in resting motor threshold in a rodent model of motor cortex stimulationDavid M Sokal
Department of Biology, Neurosciences Centre of Excellence for Drug Discovery, Medicines Research Centre, GlaxoSmithKline SpA, Verona, Italy

AMN082, an allosteric mGluR7 agonist that inhibits afferent glutamatergic transmission in rat basolateral amygdalaAnnarosa Ugolini
Department of Biology, Neuroscience Centre of Excellence for Drug Discovery, Psychiatry CEDD, GlaxoSmithKline Medicines Research Centre S p A, Via Fleming 4, 37135 Verona, Italy
Neuropharmacology 55:532-6. 2008..These results suggest that mGLUR7 has a unique role in regulating neuronal activity in the BLA and may be a target for novel drugs for the treatment of anxiety...
The efficacy of sodium channel blockers to prevent phencyclidine-induced cognitive dysfunction in the rat: potential for novel treatments for schizophreniaCharles H Large
Neuroscience Centre of Excellence for Drug Discovery, Medicines Research Centre, GlaxoSmithKline SpA, Verona, Italy
J Pharmacol Exp Ther 338:100-13. 2011....
Effects of GABA(B), 5-HT(1A), and 5-HT(2) receptor stimulation on activation and inhibition of the rat lateral amygdala following medial geniculate nucleus stimulation in vivoDavid M Sokal
Psychiatry CEDD, GlaxoSmithKline S p A, Via A Fleming 4, Verona 37135, Italy
Brain Res 1031:141-50. 2005..The results support the use of in vivo field potential recording within the MGN-lateral amygdala pathway to evaluate this as a possible site of action for novel anxiolytic drugs...
Effects of lamotrigine and levetiracetam on seizure development in a rat amygdala kindling modelSharon C Stratton
Neurology and GI Centre of Excellence for Drug Discovery, GlaxoSmithKline, New Frontiers Science Park, Third Avenue, Harlow, CM19 5AW, Essex, UK
Epilepsy Res 53:95-106. 2003..These results suggest that lamotrigine, like levetiracetam, possesses the ability to counteract kindling acquisition, which differentiates it from other drugs with sodium channel blocking activity...
The CB1 receptor antagonist, SR141716A, prevents high-frequency stimulation-induced reduction of feedback inhibition in the rat dentate gyrus following perforant path stimulation in vivoDavid M Sokal
Department of Biology, Psychiatry CEDD, GlaxoSmithKline Medicines Research Centre, Via A Fleming 4, Verona, Italy
Brain Res 1223:50-8. 2008..We suggest that CB(1) activation during HFS of the medial perforant path increases glutamate release from perforant path synapses, but inhibits release of GABA from local circuit interneurons...
The mechanism of action of retigabine (ezogabine), a first-in-class K+ channel opener for the treatment of epilepsyMartin J Gunthorpe
New Frontiers Science Park, GlaxoSmithKline plc, Harlow, Essex, United Kingdom

Mood and Anxiety DPU, Neurosciences CEDD, GlaxoSmithKline Medicines Research Centre, Verona, Italy
J Psychopharmacol 25:1703-11. 2011..The dissociation between monoamine overflow and locomotor activity suggests the involvement of different brain circuits; relevance to the treatment of schizophrenia is also discussed...
