Potentiation of gamma aminobutyric acid receptors (GABAAR) by Ethanol: How are inhibitory receptors affected?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2016
In recent years there has been an increase in the understanding of ethanol actions on the type A -aminobutyric acid chloride channel (GABAAR), a member of the pentameric ligand gated ion channels (pLGICs).

Preclinical signal for a disease‐modifying effect on seizure cluster severity with intermittent diazepam treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In epilepsy, daily treatment provides only symptomatic seizure control, leaving a significant unmet need for a treatment that affects the underlying predisposition to seizures. Here, in a first‐of‐its‐kind study, we test the hypothesis that intermittent treatment of seizure clusters with diazepam in the kainic acid post‐status ...

Targeting Hsp90 with cemdomespib reduces seizure burden and alters disease course in preclinical epilepsy models

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures and frequent cognitive and psychiatric comorbidities. Although current antiseizure medications provide symptomatic relief, they fail to prevent or modify epileptogenesis.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid ameliorates gamma rays-induced oxidative stress in the small intestine of rats

open access: yesJournal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2017
Background The current study aimed to evaluate the role of gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) in modulating histopathological and biochemical disturbances in the rat’s small intestine following gamma radiation exposure. Results The results showed that whole

Sex‐specific elevated incidence of glaucoma associated with topiramate versus valproate or lamotrigine in epilepsy, not migraine: A population‐based cohort study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Topiramate has been linked to increased glaucoma risk, potentially through mechanisms involving ocular fluid shifts. However, comparative risks vs other antiseizure medications (ASMs) and variation by sex or indication remain uncertain.

A novel PTEN variant causing hemimegalencephaly and focal nodular heterotopias in the developing human brain

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Brain development and subsequent brain function are highly sensitive to genetic mutations, which can result in severe neurodevelopmental malformations. Alterations in PTEN signaling cause a spectrum of developmental malformations and neurological diseases including epilepsy.

Predictive value of seizure onset for gross motor dysfunction in individuals with pathogenic GABRB2 and GABRB3 variants

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in γ‐aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor genes have been associated with a wide spectrum of neurological disorders. We aimed to delineate the clinical trajectories associated with gain‐of‐function (GoF) and loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants in GABRB2 and GABRB3, and to develop a risk‐prediction model for gross

Freedon study: Real‐life outcomes of cenobamate in different lines of treatment

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Cenobamate is an antiseizure medication (ASM) with proven effectiveness in individuals with highly refractory epilepsy. This study investigated the effectiveness and tolerability of cenobamate in different treatment lines and a less refractory setting. Methods This was a multicenter, retrospective, observational study.

Depressive symptoms as independent correlates of epilepsy‐related cognitive burden

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to assess the relationship between the severity of depression and anxiety symptoms and epilepsy‐related variables and cognitive burden in people with epilepsy (PwE), as assessed using EpiTrack. Methods We prospectively enrolled a cohort of PwE who underwent EpiTrack and evaluation by Generalized Anxiety ...
