Dual role of spreading depolarization in an epileptic focus

open access: yesEpilepsia, 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.

Diminished caudate and superior temporal gyrus responses to effort-based decision making in patients with first-episode major depressive disorder

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Anhedonia, the loss of interest or pleasure in reward processing, is a hallmark feature of major depressive disorder (MDD), but its underlying neurobiological mechanism is largely unknown.

An n‐of‐1 gene‐directed drug repurposing trial for an ultrarare genetic condition

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Gain‐of‐function (GoF) variants in the KCNC1 potassium channel subunit gene (Kv3.1) cause motor/cognitive delays and hypotonia and have been associated with seizures. Fluoxetine has inhibitory effects on Kv3.1. However, open‐label nonrandomized administration is insufficient to guide clinical decision‐making in ultrarare conditions ...

Increased interval between seizure clusters across time in pediatric patients treated with the immediate‐use seizure medication diazepam nasal spray

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Seizure clusters, intermittent increases in seizure activity that differ from a patient's usual seizure pattern, may occur despite treatment with a daily anti‐seizure medication. Benzodiazepine‐containing immediate‐use seizure medications (ISMs; also called rescue therapies) are the cornerstone of treatment for seizure clusters ...

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

Timing is everything: The effect of early‐life seizures on developing neuronal circuits subserving spatial memory

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Spatial memory, the aspect of memory involving encoding and retrieval of information regarding one's environment and spatial orientation, is a complex biological function incorporating multiple neuronal networks. Hippocampus‐dependent spatial memory is not innate and emerges during development in both humans and rodents.
