Implications of genetic diagnostics in epilepsy surgery candidates: A single-center cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objective: Genetic causes are increasingly identified in patients with focal epilepsy. These genetic causes may be related to the effectiveness of epilepsy surgery. We aimed to assess the use and yield of genetic testing in a large cohort of patients who

GPR124 Alleviates Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption by Enhancing Microvascular Endothelial Function after Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study reveals the protective role of GPR124 in maintaining BBB integrity and promoting neurological recovery following TBI. It makes a significant contribution by uncovering a novel molecular interaction between GPR124 and FGFBP1 and linking this to activation of the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway in vascular repair mechanisms.

Update on surgery for epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 1999
Surgery for epilepsy is not new, it has been performed for over 100 years. However, there has been a reluctance to consider young children for surgery other than in exceptional circumstances, owing in part to the invasive nature of the presurgical evaluation. Recent advances in investigative techniques have allowed identification of candidates early in

In vivo P-glycoprotein function before and after epilepsy surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives: To study the functional activity of the multidrug efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (Pgp) at the blood-brain barrier of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy using (R)-[11C]verapamil (VPM)-PET before and after temporal lobe surgery to assess ...

Astrocytic Phenotypic Switching in Posterior Piriform Cortex Orchestrates Bone Cancer Pain–Depression Comorbidity via Purinergic–Noradrenergic Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bone cancer pain and depression share a common origin: astrocytic A2‐to‐A1 transition in the posterior piriform cortex. This phenotypic shift disrupts the ATP–adenosine–A2AR–norepinephrine axis, simultaneously driving nociceptive and affective dysfunction.

Long-Term Seizure and Antiepileptic Drug Outcomes After Epilepsy Surgery in Adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Epilepsy surgery is an effi cacious treatment for selected persons with drug-resistant focal epilepsy, rendering many seizure-free and others signifi cantly improved.

Insular epilepsy surgery [PDF]

open access: yesEpilepsia, 2017
SummarySince it was originally described nearly 70 years ago, insular epilepsy has been increasingly recognized and may explain failures after apparently well‐planned operations. We review the history of awareness of the phenomenon, techniques for its assessment, and its surgical management.

Smart Nanotechnologies for Multimodal Neuromodulation and Brain Interfacing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Recent advances in smart nanotechnologies are expanding the toolbox for brain interfacing, from wireless neuromodulation and high‐resolution sensing to targeted delivery within the central nervous system. By combining responsive nanomaterials with bioinspired design, these platforms enable multimodal interactions with neurons and glia, while also ...

No apparent effect of surgery for temporal lobe epilepsy on heart rate variability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Impaired cardiac autonomic function may contribute to the risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Clinical observations indicate that successful epilepsy surgery is associated with a reduced risk of SUDEP.
