Methylxanthines, Seizures, and Excitotoxicity [PDF]

, 2010
Clinical evidence, in particular the wide use of theophylline as a bronchodilator, suggests that methylxanthines can cause seizures in patients without known underlying epilepsy. Theophylline is also known to be an added risk factor for seizure exacerbation in patients with epilepsy.

Mechanism of Ammonia‐Induced Brain Damage in Chinese Striped‐Necked Turtle (Mauremys sinensis)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
High levels of ammonia disrupt the integrity of the brain barrier in Mauremys sinensis, leading to tissue edema. This, in turn, triggers a series of cascade reactions, including disturbances in neurotransmitter levels, particularly glutamate, which might further exacerbate the neurotoxic effects.
