Effects of the ketogenic diet on dentate gyrus and CA3 KCC2 expression in male rats with electrical amygdala kindling-induced seizures

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience
IntroductionKetogenic diet (KD), a high-fat, low-carbohydrate, and adequate protein diet, is a non-pharmacological treatment for refractory epilepsy. However, their mechanism of action is not fully understood.

KCC2 as a multifunctional protein in brain development and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Active extrusion of Cl- from the neuronal cytoplasm by the neuron-specific K-Cl co-transporter isoform KCC2 is necessary for the hyperpolarizing inhibitory Cl- currents mediated by the GABA receptors (GABAARs). Early in development and following cellular

Chloride Channels in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesActa Medica Bulgarica
In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), human postmortem transcriptomics reveals a consistent shift, with downregulation of neuronal genes and upregulation of glial and inflammatory programs. This establishes a framework where inhibitory synapses and ion

KCC2 inhibition and neuronal hyperexcitability promote extrinsic apoptosis dependent upon C1q

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience
IntroductionThe potassium chloride co-transporter 2 (KCC2) is the principal Cl− extrusion mechanism employed by mature neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) and plays a critical role in determining the efficacy of fast synaptic inhibition mediated ...

Phospho-dependent modulation of potassium chloride co-transporter KCC2.

open access: yes
The neuronal-specific potassium chloride co-transporter 2, KCC2, is a major chloride extruder in brain. The expression of KCC2 during neuronal development is fundamental to the switch of GABAergic response from excitatory to inhibitory.
