1.
Hypotension (Low Blood Pressure)
12/01/1995 - "
1. A new, modified rat two vessel occlusion model (with hypotension) was established and the neuroprotective efficacy of the novel agent lifarizine (RS-87476) was examined.
"
11/01/1997 - "
These clinical effects include hypertension (which is probably preferable to the hypotension seen with nimodipine and lifarizine), sedation, confusion or hallucinations and, at high doses, catatonia.

2.
Neuroblastoma
10/01/1994 - "
1. The ability of lifarizine (RS-87476) to block human voltage-sensitive Na+ channel currents was studied by use of whole cell patch clamp recording from differentiated neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y).
"
04/01/1995 - "
1. The actions of the neuroprotective agent, lifarizine (RS-87476-190), on voltage-dependent Na+ currents have been examined in the neuroblastoma cell line, N1E-115, using the whole-cell variant of the patch clamp technique.
"
07/01/1995 - "
5. The potencies of a series of compounds in displacing [3H]-lifarizine from rat cerebrocortical membranes correlated well with their affinities for inactivated sodium channels estimated from whole-cell voltage clamp studies in the mouse neuroblastoma cell line, NIE-115 (r=0.96).6. These results show that [3H]-lifarizine is a high affinity ligand for neuronal sodium channels which potently and selectively labels a site, allosterically linked to toxin binding site 2, associated within activated sodium channels.

3.
Infarction (Infarctions)
04/01/1991 - "
Compared with infarcts in placebo-treated animals, infarcts in cats given RS-87476 were reduced by an average of 70% at the lowest dose, 75% at the intermediate dose, and 88% at the highest dose.
"
02/01/1998 - "
2. Lifarizine, ipsapirone and N,N-diethyl-2-[4-(phenylmethyl)phenoxy]ethanamine HCl (DPPE) all reduced both infarct area and volume.
"
4.
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
11/01/1997 - "
These clinical effects include hypertension (which is probably preferable to the hypotension seen with nimodipine and lifarizine), sedation, confusion or hallucinations and, at high doses, catatonia.
"
5.
Hallucinations (Hallucination)
11/01/1997 - "
These clinical effects include hypertension (which is probably preferable to the hypotension seen with nimodipine and lifarizine), sedation, confusion or hallucinations and, at high doses, catatonia.
