Abstract

The effect of the new nootropic drug nooglutyl, a positive modulator of AMPA-subtype glutamatergic receptors, was studied in rats with a model hemorrhagic stroke (HS)--posttraumatic hematoma induced by cerebral tissue destruction in the capsule interna region. Single intraperitoneal injections of nooglutyl (10 and 20 mg/kg) 3-4 h after operation decreased the HS-induced neurological deficiency, restored the coordination of movements, improved the passive avoidance reaction retrieval, and prevented the loss of experimental animals. The results show evidence of a pronounced neuroprotector action of nooglutyl in rats with the HS model.
