Psilocin, A Psychedelic Drug, Exerts Anticonvulsant Effects Against PTZ‐ and MES‐Induced Seizures in Mice via 5‐HT1A and CB1 Receptors: Involvement of Nitrergic, Opioidergic, and Kynurenine Pathways
ABSTRACT Epilepsy, a chronic neurological disorder affecting around 65 million people globally, is characterized by recurrent, unprovoked epileptic seizures. Psilocin, the active metabolite of psilocybin, a well‐known psychedelic compound, has recently gained attention for its potential antidepressa...
