WONOEP XVII appraisal: Targeting network excitability beyond the synapse ‐Neurotransmitter, ionic, and electro ‐diffusions

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy affects approximately 1% of the population worldwide, and although medications are effective in the majority of cases, seizures persist in approximately 30% of patients. Despite the effort to develop new antiseizure drugs, the rate of pharmacoresistance in patients has not diminished over the past 3 decades. There is thus a real unmet

The transcriptomic signature of DEPDC5 KO induced mTOR hyperactivation in human neurons and its response to rapamycin treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mutations of the DEP Domain Containing 5 gene (DEPDC5), a mechanistic Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor involved in amino acid sensing, are associated with neurological diseases such as epilepsy and/or autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Loss of DEPDC5 impacts early neuronal development via mTOR hyperactivity.

Electrical stimulation of stem cell–derived human neural networks for evaluating anti‐seizure medications

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Current preclinical epilepsy drug screening relies on animal models that poorly reflect human neurophysiology, leading to high failure rates in clinical translation. We aimed to establish a human in vitro model using human‐induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)–derived cortical neurons cultured on multielectrode arrays (MEAs), capable

Effects of cell therapy on seizures in animal models of epilepsy: Systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract This study was undertaken to systematically evaluate the efficacy of cell therapy in reducing seizures in animal models of chronic epilepsy. Three databases, Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid Embase, and Web of Science, were searched using predetermined eligibility criteria.
