The effect of zonisamide on abnormal muscle tone during REM sleep in a mouse model of REM sleep behavior disorder

Introduction: Zonisamide, first launched as an anti-epileptic drug (Excegran® or Zonegran®), has been approved as a drug for Parkinson's disease (PD) in Japan (Trerief®). Zonisamide ameliorates motor symptoms and improves activities of daily living in patients with advanced PD. In addition, it has been recently reported that zonisamide also improves the symptom of REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) in some PD patients. In this study, we examined the effectiveness of zonisamide for RBD, by using a novel RBD model, Glra1flox/flox; Chat-Cre mice.
