Fisetin decreases the duration of ictal-like discharges in mouse hippocampal slices.

ABSTRACT: There is an increasing interest in the biological and therapeutic effects of fisetin, a natural phenolic compound. Fisetin has affinity on some neuronal targets and may have the potential to modulate neuronal activity. In this study the effects of acute application of fisetin on synchronized events were evaluated electro-physiologically. Besides, interaction of fisetin with closely related channels were investigated in silico. Acute horizontal hippocampal slices were obtained from 32- to 36-day-old C57BL/6 mice. Extracellular field potentials were recorded from CA3 region of the hippocampus. Bath application of 4 aminopyridine (4AP, 100 µM) initiated ictal- and interictal-like synchronized epileptiform discharges in the brain slices. Fifty micromolar fisetin was applied to the recording ch
