Возможность фармакологической коррекции NMDA-индуцированной эксайтотоксичности сетчатки производными 3-гидроксипиридина

Abstract

Relevance. Glaucoma is the leading cause of blindness worldwide. Among all pathological mechanisms, a special role is assigned to glutamate excitotoxicity, which accompanies a number of pathological conditions of the retina. The aim of this work was to study the pharmacological activity of compounds of 3-hydroxypyridine derivatives in a model of NMDA-induced retinal degeneration. Material and methods. The introduction of the compounds was carried out in the prophylactic mode of administration. 7 days after the model, ophthalmoscopic changes in the fundus and the level of microcirculation were assessed. Research results. According to the results of the study, it was found that the compound LHT 6-20 had the highest activity. Compound LHT 6-20 at a dose of 25.5 mg/ kg in a model of neurodegenerative retinal damage induced by intravitreal administration of NMDA in rats with a prophylactic administration regimen provides an improvement in the fundus picture by 15.4%, relative to the group with a pathology model, which has a statistically a significant difference (p < 0.05), an increase in the level of microcirculation in the retina by 14.1% relative to the group with the model, while the indicator has a statistically significant difference from the group with pathology (p < 0.05), but does not differ from the reference drug (p > 0.05). Keywords: derivatives of 3-hydroxypyridine, NMDA, excitotoxicity, retina, rats, the level of microcirculation, ophthalmoscopy
