Online published on 18 April, 2019. Abstract Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy (PME) is a rare epilepsy syndrome caused by number of genetic disorders. This syndrome contains myoclonic seizures and chronic seizures along with progressive neurological decline. Oxidative stress can result into mild or severe form of these diseases and remain the cause of several other diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, neurological diseases, malignancies, renal disease, diabetes, inflammatory, skin diseases, aging, respiratory diseases, liver diseases, and different type of viral infection. The evaluation of the effectiveness of various, antioxidants is being targeted due to clinical, trials of several neurodegenerative diseases. In this study we have seen the effectiveness of antioxidants against Progressive Myoclonus Epilepsy disease. Docking is done using Schrödinger software, interaction studies shows that Resveratrol is potential drug against myoclonus epilepsy. Further study shows that antioxidants can be better inhibitor of myoclonus epilepsy disease. Top Keywords Lafora disease, antioxidants, Resveratrol, Schrödinger software, docking. Top |
