Abstract Epilepsy is a heterogeneous disorder characterized by spontaneous seizures and behavioral comorbidities. The underlying mechanisms of seizures and epilepsy across various syndromes lead to diverse clinical presentation and features. Similarly, animal models of epilepsy arise from numerous dissimilar inciting events.

Examining the role of astrogliosis and JNK signaling in post-traumatic epilepsy
Objective Post-traumatic epilepsy is a devastating complication of traumatic brain injury that has no targeted pharmacological therapy. Previous literature has explored the role of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in epilepsy and the creation of

A Practical Synthesis of (−)-Kainic Acid [PDF]
A highly practical stereoselective total synthesis of (-)-kainic acid is described. This synthesis features the stereoselective alkylation of an iodolactone intermediate that was efficiently prepared from (+)-carvone and introduction of carboxylic acid by hydrolysis of a nitrile accompanied by epimerizaion.

DNA methylation mediates persistent epileptiform activity in vitro and in vivo. [PDF]
Epilepsy is a chronic brain disorder involving recurring seizures often precipitated by an earlier neuronal insult. The mechanisms that link the transient neuronal insult to the lasting state of epilepsy are unknown.

Effect of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Rosa damascena on Hippocampal Tissue Changes in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy in Rats [PDF]
Background and Objective: Temporal lobe epilepsy is characterized by the degeneration of hippocampal neurons and the sprouting of mossy fibers in the dentate area. This study aimed to investigate the impact of the hydroalcoholic extract of Rosa damascene

Kainic Acid and MPP+ Induce Upregulation of GLT-1 in Neuroblastoma and Glia Cells
Objective:Glutamate is the major excitatory transmitter in the brain. The excessive glutamate will lead to excitotoxicity. Glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1) is the major transporter that performs 95% of the glutamate clearance contributing to normal ...
