GABRA2‐related encephalopathy: Identification of two phenotypes with distinctive electroclinical features

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Pathogenic variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor subunit genes are increasingly associated with epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorders. Pathogenic variants in GABRA2, encoding the α‐2 subunit of GABAA receptors, have been recently reported.

WONOEP XVII appraisal: Targeting network excitability beyond the synapse ‐Neurotransmitter, ionic, and electro ‐diffusions

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy affects approximately 1% of the population worldwide, and although medications are effective in the majority of cases, seizures persist in approximately 30% of patients. Despite the effort to develop new antiseizure drugs, the rate of pharmacoresistance in patients has not diminished over the past 3 decades. There is thus a real unmet

Electrical stimulation of stem cell–derived human neural networks for evaluating anti‐seizure medications

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Current preclinical epilepsy drug screening relies on animal models that poorly reflect human neurophysiology, leading to high failure rates in clinical translation. We aimed to establish a human in vitro model using human‐induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)–derived cortical neurons cultured on multielectrode arrays (MEAs), capable

Involvement of GABAA Receptors in the Neuroprotective Effect of Theanine on Focal Cerebral Ischemia in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
We investigated the involvement of γ-aminobutyric acidA (GABAA) receptors in the neuroprotective effect of γ-glutamylethylamide (theanine), a component of Japanese green tea, following a 4-h middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion in mice.

Drug discovery and preclinical testing of drug candidates for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Drug development for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) follows different strategies on one hand including disease‐targeting precision medicine approaches considering the genetic variants and pathomechanisms in DEEs and on the other hand including therapeutic approaches with novel targets or second‐generation drug candidates ...

GABA_{B} Receptors Regulate Chick Retinal Calcium Waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Correlated spiking activity and associated Ca²⁺ waves in the developing retina are important in determining the connectivity of the visual system. Here, we show that GABA, via GABA_{B} receptors, regulates the temporal characteristics of Ca²⁺ waves ...

PAC‐FOS: A novel translational concordance framework identifies preclinical seizure models with highest predictive validity for clinical focal onset seizures

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Central to the development of novel antiseizure medications (ASMs) is testing of antiseizure activity in preclinical models. Although various well‐established models exist, their predictive validity across the spectrum of clinical epilepsies has been less clear.

Effect of Heat Stress on the Expression of GABA Receptor mRNA in the HPG Axis of Wenchang Chickens

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Poultry Science
We investigated the effect of heat stress (HS) on the expression of the GABA receptor in the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis of Wenchang chickens.
