The small molecule simufilam dose‐dependently attenuates the worsening of seizures in a mouse model of tuberous sclerosis complex

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Novel epilepsy treatments for patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and focal cortical dysplasia type II (FCDII) are urgently needed. In these patients, mutations in the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway genes lead to mTOR hyperactivity and focal cortical malformations that frequently cause intractable epilepsy ...

Dual role of spreading depolarization in an epileptic focus

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Spreading depolarizations (SDs) are often associated with epileptic discharges. Although SDs are traditionally thought to contribute to postictal depression and termination of epileptic discharges, seizures may also occur during SDs or may even follow SDs, suggesting that interactions between SD and seizures are more complex.
