Disrupted female estrous cyclicity in the intrahippocampal kainic acid mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, 2016
Reproductive dysfunction is a comorbidity that commonly occurs with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Characterization of this comorbidity in various models of TLE in mice will greatly facilitate mechanistic investigations of the relationship between ...

Anticonvulsant effects of antiaris toxicaria aqueous extract: investigation using animal models of temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2017
Background Antiaris toxicaria has previously shown anticonvulsant activity in acute animal models of epilepsy. The aqueous extract (AAE) was further investigated for activity in kindling with pentylenetetrazole and administration of pilocarpine and ...

Loss of hippocampal neurons after kainate treatment correlates with behavioral deficits. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Treating rats with kainic acid induces status epilepticus (SE) and leads to the development of behavioral deficits and spontaneous recurrent seizures later in life.

The cell cycle–apoptosis connection revisited in the adult brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Adult neurogenesis is studied in vivo using thymidine analogues such as bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) to label DNA synthesis during the S phase of the cell cycle.

Inhibition of Gasdermin D-Mediated Pyroptosis Attenuates the Severity of Seizures and Astroglial Damage in Kainic Acid-Induced Epileptic Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Objective: Our study aimed to explore whether gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis is involved in the mechanism of kainic acid-induced seizures.Methods: C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham and epilepsy groups.

Paradoxical roles of antioxidant enzymes:Basic mechanisms and health implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are generated from aerobic metabolism, as a result of accidental electron leakage as well as regulated enzymatic processes.

The HDAC6 Inhibitor Trichostatin A Acetylates Microtubules and Protects Axons From Excitotoxin-Induced Degeneration in a Compartmented Culture Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Axon degeneration has been implicated as a pathological process in several neurodegenerative diseases and acquired forms of neural injury. We have previously shown that stabilizing microtubules can protect axons against excitotoxin-induced fragmentation,

Neuropeptide receptors as potential antiepileptic drug targets : focus on the ghrelin axis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Epilepsy is a very serious neurological disorder which is often underrepresented. Around 50 million individuals worldwide have active epilepsy with recurrent seizures and in spite of the medical advances over the years, 30% of these patients remain as ...

Epithelium-dependent effect of L-glutamate on airways: involvement of prostaglandins

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2002
We investigated the effect of the excitatory amino acid (EAA) receptor agonists L-glutamate, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), (RS)-a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA) and kainic acid on KCl-induced contractions of rabbit tracheal ...
