Cellular antiseizure mechanisms of everolimus in pediatric tuberous sclerosis complex, cortical dysplasia, and non-mTOR-mediated etiologies. [PDF]

, 2018
The present study was designed to examine the potential cellular antiseizure mechanisms of everolimus, a mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway blocker, in pediatric epilepsy cases. Cortical tissue samples obtained from pediatric patients (n

Microelectrode array scaled for human hippocampal slices

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is characterized by recurrent seizures originating usually from the hippocampus, and approximately one‐third of TLE patients remain refractory to pharmacological interventions. Surgical resection offers a potential cure for refractory TLE cases, with approximately 70% achieving seizure freedom. Still, the

Paroxysmal Discharges in Tissue Slices From Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Patients: Critical Role of GABAB Receptors in the Generation of Ictal Activity

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2020
In the present study, we characterized the effects of bath application of the proconvulsant drug 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) alone or in combination with GABAA and/or GABAB receptor antagonists, in cortical dysplasia (CD type I and CD type IIa/b), tuberous ...

Clinical, Genetic, and Imaging Characteristics of SCA27B: Insights from a Large Dutch Cohort

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Deep intronic GAA repeat expansions in intron 1 of the FGF14 gene were identified in 2023 as cause of late‐onset cerebellar ataxia. Since then, GAA‐FGF14‐related ataxia (SCA27B) has emerged as one of the most common genetic causes of late‐onset cerebellar ataxia.

Microwave‐Assisted Organic Syntheses in Deep Eutectic Solvents: A Win‐Win Association for Sustainable Chemistry

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
In organic synthesis, deep eutectic solvents (DES) have demonstrated their ability to be used as reaction media for the development of reactions in line with green chemistry principles. This review presents an overview of microwave‐assisted organic synthesis in DES, highlighting the diversity of uses for these solvents, their role in mechanisms, the ...

catena-Poly[[silver(I)-μ-4-aminopyridine] perchlorate]: a 1-D staircase coordination polymer

Acta Crystallographica Section E, 2010
Reaction of 4-aminopyridine with silver(I) perchlorate leads to a one-dimensional coordination polymer, {[Ag(C5H6N2)]ClO4}n, in which the aminopyridine binds through both N atoms.

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Blebbistatin reduces calcium buffering in cardiomyocytes: Consequences for cellular electrophysiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Blebbistatin reduces Ca2+ buffering in induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived atrial cardiomyocytes. Blebbistatin, a widely used excitation–contraction uncoupling agent, decreases calcium (Ca2+) buffer affinity (increased buffer dissociation constant), leading to elevated diastolic Ca2+ levels, increased sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+
