WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

A translational multimodal machine‐learning prototype predicting valproate response in epilepsy treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects ~1% of the global population and often requires lifelong antiseizure medication (ASM) therapy. Valproic acid (VPA) is a commonly prescribed first‐line ASM, yet only approximately half of patients achieve sustained seizure freedom. Treatment selection remains largely empirical.

Cognitive and behavioral clinical outcome assessments in children with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies: Issues and instruments

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Children with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) face cognitive and behavioral challenges that may have a greater impact than seizures on their quality of life (QoL). The need to assess these nonseizure outcomes for evaluating treatments is increasingly recognized.

Add‐on treatment with vinpocetine reduces seizure frequency and improves comorbidities in patients with loss‐of‐function γ‐aminobutyric acid type A receptor variants

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The semisynthetic compound vinpocetine has gained attention as a potential precision medicine for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies caused by loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes. As a positive allosteric modulator of GABAA receptors, case reports suggest that vinpocetine can

Compensatory rearrangement of parvalbumin interneuron voltage‐gated sodium channel subunits in a mouse model of Dravet syndrome

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in the gene SCN1A, which encodes the voltage‐gated sodium channel (VGSC) pore‐forming (α) subunit NaV1.1, lead to a spectrum of neurological disease, including Dravet syndrome. NaV1.1 is prominently expressed at the proximal portion of the axon initial segment (AIS) of fast‐spiking γ‐aminobutyric ...

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.
