Abstract
Aims: The aim of this study is to investigate the anxiolytic activity of perampanel, a non-competitive antagonist of alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA)-type glutamate receptors, which is approved for partial-onset seizures in patients with epilepsy, and its mechanism of action.
