Tetramethylenedisulfotetramine alters Ca²⁺ dynamics in cultured hippocampal neurons: mitigation by NMDA receptor blockade and GABA(A) receptor-positive modulation. [PDF]
, 2012 Tetramethylenedisulfotetramine (TETS) is a potent convulsant that is considered a chemical threat agent. We characterized TETS as an activator of spontaneous Ca²⁺ oscillations and electrical burst discharges in mouse hippocampal neuronal cultures at 13 ...

Women with epilepsy: Evidence‐based counseling across the lifespan
Epilepsia, EarlyView.Abstract Women with epilepsy (WWE) encounter distinct and evolving challenges across the lifespan that require clinical management extending beyond seizure control alone. Although awareness of sex‐specific aspects of epilepsy has increased, important gaps remain in their integration into routine care.

Neuroprotective actions of cerebellar and pineal allopregnanolone on Purkinje cells
FASEB BioAdvances, 2020 The brain produces steroids de novo from cholesterol, so‐called “neurosteroids.” The Purkinje cell, a cerebellar neuron, was discovered as a major site of the biosynthesis of neurosteroids including sex steroids, such as progesterone, from cholesterol in

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Pharmacological effect of one icv dose of Allopregnanolone in female rat: behavioural profile [PDF]
, 2015 We have previously observed that intracerebroventricular allopregnanolone (ALLO) injection produced an anxiolytic effect and inhibited sexual receptivity when the test was performed in a separate manner. Also, ALLO reverts learning deficit in female rats

GABAergic compensation in connexin36 knock-out mice evident during low-magnesium seizure-like event activity [PDF]
, 2010 Gap junctions within the cerebral cortex may facilitate cortical seizure formation by their ability to synchronize electrical activity. To investigate this, one option is to compare wild-type (WT) animals with those lacking the gene for connexin36 (Cx36 ...

An iEEG investigation on sex‐specific differences in seizure duration
Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Male people with epilepsy (mPWE) are at higher risk for bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (BTCs) and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) compared to female people with epilepsy (fPWE). Despite major clinical and personal implications, little is known about sex‐specific differences in seizure propagation and termination ...

The role of neurosteroids in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy [PDF]
Medicinski Podmladak, 2016 Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE) represents a neuropsychiatric syndrome caused by acute or chronic liver failure. Hyperammonemia plays a pivotal role in the development of HE through modulation of neurotransmission, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation ...
