The ferroptosis inducer RSL3 triggers interictal epileptiform activity in mice cortical neurons
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, which result from excessive, synchronous discharges of neurons in different brain areas. In about 30% of cases, epileptic discharges, which vary in their etiology and symptomatology,
