Valproic acid anticonvulsant molecule C014 / 2296
Valproic acid. Molecular model of the anticonvulsant and mood-stabilising drug valproic acid. It is used to treat epilepsy, seizures, bipolar disorder and depression, and is also being studied for use in neurodegenerative diseases and as an anti-cancer drug. Valproic acid is thought to work by increasing the concentration of the neurotransmitter GABA in the brain

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Valproic acid, a powerful anticonvulsant and mood-stabilizing drug. Against a striking black background, the illustration highlights the complexity and beauty of this chemical compound. Valproic acid is widely used in medical practice to treat various conditions such as epilepsy, seizures, bipolar disorder, and depression. Its therapeutic potential extends beyond these disorders as it is also being studied for its effectiveness in neurodegenerative diseases and even as an anti-cancer drug. The mechanism of action behind Valproic acid lies in its ability to increase the concentration of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a crucial neurotransmitter responsible for regulating brain activity. By modulating GABA levels in the brain, Valproic acid helps to control epileptic seizures and stabilize moods in individuals with bipolar disorder. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of this essential medication but also emphasizes its significance within the field of biology and medicine. The molecular model depicted here provides insight into how drugs like Valproic acid interact at a cellular level to bring about therapeutic effects. Ramon Andrade's skillful portrayal captures both the scientific essence and aesthetic appeal of this molecule, reminding us that science can be visually captivating while improving lives through innovative pharmaceuticals.
