Genome-wide linkage scan for loci associated with epilepsy in Belgian shepherd dogs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BackgroundIdiopathic epilepsy in the Belgian shepherd dog is known to have a substantial genetic component. The objective of this study was to identify genomic regions associated with the expression of generalized seizures in the Belgian Tervuren and ...

Epileptic high-frequency network activity in a model of non-lesional temporal lobe epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
High-frequency cortical activity, particularly in the 250–600 Hz (fast ripple) band, has been implicated in playing a crucial role in epileptogenesis and seizure generation. Fast ripples are highly specific for the seizure initiation zone.

Contributions of Magnetoencephalography to Understanding Mechanisms of Generalized Epilepsies: Blurring the Boundary Between Focal and Generalized Epilepsies?

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
According to the latest operational 2017 ILAE classification of epileptic seizures, the generalized epileptic seizure is still conceptualized as “originating at some point within and rapidly engaging, bilaterally distributed networks.” In contrast, the ...

Reduction of Hippocampal High-Frequency Activity in Wag/Rij Rats with a Genetic Predisposition to Absence Epilepsy

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
In temporal lobe epilepsy, high frequency oscillations serve as electroencephalographic (EEG) markers of epileptic hippocampal tissue. In contrast, absence epilepsy and other idiopathic epilepsies are known to result from thalamo-cortical abnormalities ...

Comparative Effectiveness of 100 mg/kg Levetiracetam Injection in Two Different Epilepsy Models: Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and Genetic Absence Epilepsy

open access: yesArchives of Epilepsy
Objective: Levetiracetam (LEV) is a broad-spectrum anti-seizure drug primarily prescribed for partial seizures. We aimed to compare the effects of LEV in two epilepsy models: the kindling model for temporal lobe epilepsy and the Genetic Absence Epilepsy ...
