dc.description.abstractValproate (VPA) induced changes in ovarian morphology are observed in humans with epilepsy and in non-epileptic animals. The effects of lamotrigine (LTG) on female reproduction is not well known. We investigated whether LTG might be a safer drug for use with patients of reproductive age. Forty Wistar albino female rats were divided into five groups. The control group was injected with saline-vehicle solution. The low dose (LD)-VPA group was injected with 100 mg/kg VPA. The high dose (HD)-VPA group was injected with 500 mg/kg VPA. The LD-LTG group was injected with 10 mg/kg LTG. The HD-LTG group was injected with 50 mg/kg LTG. We evaluated histological and biochemical changes in the ovaries. The number of atretic and cystic follicles was increased in the HD-VPA and HD-LTG groups compared to the control group. A significant increase in malondialdehyde level was found in the VPA groups compared to the control and LTG groups. No significant differences in total glutathione levels or superoxide dismutase activity were found among study groups. Catalase activity was significantly higher in HD-VPA and HD-LTG groups compared to the control, LD-VPA and LD-LTG groups. Prevalence and intensity of caspase-3 immunoreactivity in the luteal cells were significantly greater in the HD-LTG group compared to the control group. VPA administration caused polycystic ovarian syndrome-like changes in the ovary. We found that LD-LTG, which reflects the dose for humans, might be a safer option for use during the reproductive age.en_US
