The interacting etiologies of hippocampal sclerosis in epilepsy: A scoping review
Abstract According to the International League Against Epilepsy classification, mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (MTLE‐HS) is considered an epilepsy syndrome. Several etiologies may precede HS, but there is little overview in the literature about these etiologies.

Divergent mechanisms of steroid inhibition in the human ρ1 GABAA receptor
ρ-type γ-aminobutyric acid-A (GABAA) receptors are widely distributed in the retina and brain, and are potential drug targets for the treatment of visual, sleep and cognitive disorders.

Abstract Objective Accumulating evidence indicates that aberrant C1q‐C3 complement signaling in microglia and astrocytes drives synaptic dysfunction and neuronal loss. C1q‐mediated synaptic dysfunction disrupts neuronal circuitry balance and can lead to network hyperexcitability in epilepsy.

Based on a systemic analysis for the global burden of disease study from 1990 to 2016, the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) 2016 Alcohol Collaborators reported that alcohol use was a leading risk factor for global disease burden and caused substantial ...

Abstract Objective Absence epilepsy is characterized by brief but frequent seizures with loss of consciousness. Existing treatments, which come with heavy side effects, are only partially effective and do not address the associated comorbidities, including cognitive and social deficits.

Molecular Requirements for Ethanol Differential Allosteric Modulation of Ligand-Gated Ion Channels Based on Selective G Beta Gamma Modulation [PDF]
It is now believed that the allosteric modulation produced by ethanol in glycine receptors (GlyRs) depends on alcohol binding to discrete sites within the protein structure.

Neuronal hyperexcitability: A key to unraveling hippocampal synaptic dysfunction in Lafora disease
Abstract Background and Objective Lafora disease (LD) is a rare progressive disorder caused by mutations in the EPM2A or EPM2B genes, characterized by the accumulation of Lafora bodies, drug‐resistant epilepsy, and cognitive decline. To investigate the early molecular mechanisms of LD, we studied electrophysiological changes in the dentate gyrus (DG ...

Abstract Objective Despite decades of development in anti‐seizure medications, ~30% of individuals remain refractory to all treatments, and none of the existing therapies are disease modifying. Identifying targets outside the current preclinical paradigm is critically important.

Treatment approaches in posthypoxic myoclonus: A narrative review with expert opinion
Abstract Acute posthypoxic myoclonus (PHM) is a neurological complication that typically emerges within 12–48 h following cardiac arrest, often in comatose patients. It can present as generalized, multifocal, or focal myoclonus and has traditionally been associated with poor prognosis.

A constant rate of DNA damage that is not perfectly repaired will cause a constant rate of DNA mutations. The chance of mutation will increase if DNA is prone to damage, such as occurs in somatic hypermutation (SHM) hotspots and GC‐rich DNA. Thus, if one mutation‐prone DNA site drives disease, the age of onset of disease and degree of penetrance should
