Pentylenetetrazol Kindling Epilepsy Model
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic disorders affecting approximately 1% of the general population, and no alleviation was achieved in one third of the patients medicated with antiepileptic drugs. Current treatments of epilepsy are symptomatic and have more anti-seizure effects than antiepileptic effects. These therapies do not cure epilepsy.

Chronic sleep deprivation promotes drug-resistant epilepsy via the BMAL1-mTOR-P-gp axis. [PDF]
Abstract Objective The interplay between chronic sleep deprivation and drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) has gained increasing attention. Brain and muscle Arnt‐like protein 1 (BMAL1), which is implicated in sleep disturbance, has an unclear role in DRE. We aimed to investigate the role of BMAL1 in sleep deprivation‐induced DRE. Methods A pentylenetetrazole

Effect of Deep Brain Stimulation in The Ventral Tegmental Area on Neuronal Activity in Local and Remote Brain Regions in Kindled Mice [PDF]
Objective: The mechanisms behind seizure suppression by deep brain stimulation (DBS) are not fully revealed, andthe most optimal stimulus regimens and anatomical targets are yet to be determined. We investigated the modulatoryeffect of low-frequency DBS (

Acute and Sub-chronic Anticonvulsant Effects of Edaravone on Seizure Induced by Pentylenetetrazole or Electroshock in Mice, Nitric Oxide Involvement [PDF]
Background: Edaravone is an anti-stroke medication that may have nitric oxide (NO) modulating properties. This study evaluated the role of NO in the acute and sub-chronic anticonvulsant effects of edaravone in murine models of seizures induced by ...
