Biochem/physiol Actions

Lomerizine dihydrochloride is a voltage-dependent calcium channel blocker and selective cerebral vasodilator. It is one of the most selective calcium channel blockers for the CNS and cerebral arteries. It has been reported to inhibit both T-type and L-type Ca2+ currents in rat hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons, to prevent glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in rat hippocampal primary cell cultures, and to exhibit protective effects in animal models of migraine, ischemia and hypoxia. In Japan, lomerizine has been used as the first-line prophylactic drug for migraines.

Secondary degeneration is a form of 'bystander' damage that can affect neural tissue both nearby and remote from an initial injury. Partial optic nerve transection is an excellent model in which to unequivocally differentiate events occurring during secondary degeneration from

After partial optic nerve (ON) injury, intact retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) undergo secondary death, but the topographic distribution of this death is unknown, and it is unclear which cell death pathways are involved. Although the calcium channel blocker lomerizine reduces
