Cervical dystonia: a disorder of the midbrain network for covert attentional orienting.

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2014
While the pathogenesis of cervical dystonia remains unknown, recent animal and clinical experimental studies have indicated its probable mechanisms. Abnormal temporal discrimination is a mediational endophenotype of cervical dystonia and informs new ...

Effects of fenfluramine and sigma‐1‐dependent pharmacological and genetic modulation in a mouse kindling model

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Sigma‐1 is a chaperone protein that serves as a key homeostatic regulator, implicated in neuronal excitability and seizure control. Positive allosteric modulators offer a use‐dependent means to enhance Sigma‐1 activity, potentially with favorable tolerability compared to direct agonists.

Insilico Analysis of γ- Aminobutaric Acid Transaminase (GABA-T) of Brassica napus (Rape)

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Biotechnology and Experimental Therapeutics, 2019
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a very important metabolite which plays a crucial role in signal transmission, stress metabolism and some other activities are also reported. Although the actual role of GABA shunt is not clearly understood. Three key

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Pyruvate dehydrogenase autoantibodies in autoantibody‐negative patients with seizures are associated with reduced pyruvate dehydrogenase activity

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective We investigated the presence and potential functional relevance of antimitochondrial autoantibodies in patients suspicious for autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) associated with psychiatric symptoms and/or seizures, who were negative for known antineuronal autoantibodies.

INHIBITORY NEUROTRANSMITTERS AND THEIR INFLUENCE ON TUMOR IN PATIENTS WITH GLIOMAS

open access: yesСибирский онкологический журнал, 2016
The review deals with the problem of activity of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the major inhibitory neurotransmitter, in gliomas. It has been shown that GABA has an antitumor activity in most models and cancer patients have an increased level of GABA ...

Preserved Function of Afferent Parvalbumin-Positive Perisomatic Inhibitory Synapses of Dentate Granule Cells in Rapidly Kindled Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
Parvalbumin- (PV-) containing basket cells constitute perisomatic GABAergic inhibitory interneurons innervating principal cells at perisomatic area, a strategic location that allows them to efficiently control the output and synchronize oscillatory ...

Corticocortical evoked potential amplitude is altered by cortical stimulation in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neurostimulation is an established therapy for drug‐resistant epilepsy, but optimizing stimulation parameters remains a major challenge. Corticocortical evoked potential (CCEP) amplitude may serve as an immediate biomarker of neurostimulation effects, enabling rapid parameter optimization.

Gene burden meta‐analysis of 748 879 individuals identifies LGI1‐ADAM23 protein complex association with epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy affects more than 50 million individuals globally and has a substantial genetic component that remains to be completely understood. Traditional studies have focused on severe, early onset cases enrolled through clinical or research settings.

Effect of Curcumin on the Hypothalamus Levels of the Potent Inhibitory Neurotransmitter ,Gamma aminobutyric acid

open access: yesResearch in Molecular Medicine, 2015
Background: There are some reports in the literature showing that hypothalamus synthesizes and secretes amino acid neurotransmitters. According to several studies, elevated serum levels of gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA), a potent inhibitory ...
