    Many selective synthetic melatonin receptor agonists have anticonvulsant/anti-epileptogenic properties. These agonists bind to melatonin receptor 1 (MT1) and receptor 2 (MT2), causing their activation. Therefore, we evaluated the anticonvulsant effect of Ramelteon (RMLT) as a melatonin agonist in the PTZ (Pentylenetetrazol)-kindling model. In the study, 36 male Wistar Albino rats were assessed in 6 groups (Sham, PTZ, dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), Valproic acid (VPA) (150 mg/kg) + PTZ, RMLT (30 mg/kg)+PTZ, VPA+RMLT+PTZ). Cortical electroencephalography (EEG) data were recorded for all groups. Seizures were scored according to the Racine scale. Seizure scores and onset times of the first myoclonic movements were compared in EEG traces. Total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), catalase, myeloperoxidase (MPO), and Thiol levels were measured in serum samples. Also, Calcineurin (CaN), Neuropeptide-Y (NPY), Neuron Specific Enolase (NSE), and S100B levels were measured in brain tissue samples. There was a significant difference between the PTZ and PTZ+Valproic acid+RMLT groups for the onset of the first myoclonic movements and the rate of spikes in the EEG traces in Racine's convulsion stages (P 0.05). RMLT has anticonvulsant properties. Additionally, the receptor preference of RMLT can be investigated.
