Anticonvulsant effect of minocycline on pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure in mice: involvement of nitric oxide and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor [PDF]
Anticonvulsant effects of minocycline have been explored recently. This study was designed to examine the anticonvulsant effect of acute administration of minocycline on pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures in mouse considering the possible role of the ...

Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Kindling Mouse Model [PDF]
Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) is a GABA-A receptor antagonist. An intraperitoneal injection of PTZ into an animal induces an acute, severe seizure at a high dose, whereas sequential injections of a subconvulsive dose have been used for the development of chemical kindling, an epilepsy model.

The mTOR/GLT‐1 pathway abnormality induces α‐synucleinopathy, contributing to seizures in FCD lesions, which were rescued by treatment with the mTOR inhibitor Rapa or the GLT‐1 enhancer Cef. Intracerebroventricular α‐syn administration attenuated PTZ‐induced seizures in FCD models.

Investigation of the Effect of Anakinra on Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Epileptic Seizures in Mice
Purpose: Disruption of the balance between gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate in the brain is one of the important factors contributing to seizure formation and epileptogenesis.

Neuronal hyperexcitability: A key to unraveling hippocampal synaptic dysfunction in Lafora disease
Abstract Background and Objective Lafora disease (LD) is a rare progressive disorder caused by mutations in the EPM2A or EPM2B genes, characterized by the accumulation of Lafora bodies, drug‐resistant epilepsy, and cognitive decline. To investigate the early molecular mechanisms of LD, we studied electrophysiological changes in the dentate gyrus (DG ...

Clock gene dysregulation in epilepsy: A systematic review
Abstract Objective Epileptic seizures show a rhythmic pattern, being more frequent at particular times of the day (e.g., only occurring during sleep), suggesting a role of the circadian rhythm. Clock genes regulate the circadian rhythm and might be involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.
