الوصف: Resveratrol is a natural non-flavonoid polyphenolic that has been emerging in epilepsy treatment. Despite its pharmacological properties, the poor bioavailability of resveratrol has been an important barrier that hinders its application as an anticonvulsant. The aim of this work was to improve resveratrol's anticonvulsant effects by micronizing this compound through supercritical fluid micronization technology, which promotes an increase of the particles' surface area and allows significantly reduced particle size to be obtained. We obtained commercial and micronized resveratrol and investigated the anticonvulsant effects of resveratrol as commercially found and micronized resveratrol in a pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure model in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae. Diazepam was used as the positive control. Also, animals had their locomotor and exploratory activity analyzed 24 h after the seizure occurrence. The occurrence of the tonic-clonic seizure stage was only prevented by diazepam and micronized resveratrol, unlike the non-processed compound. The seizure development was significantly slowed by diazepam and micronized resveratrol, while non-micronized resveratrol was not able to increase the latency of seizure stages. In addition, diazepam and micronized resveratrol prevented the deleterious effects of pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures on animals' locomotor and exploratory behaviour. Obtained data demonstrates that the micronization process potentiates the anticonvulsant effect of resveratrol. Micronized resveratrol achieved a similar effect to the classical drug diazepam, with the benefit that it may be a safe drug candidate to be used during the neurodevelopmental stage.
