Ergothioneine: Biosynthesis, Molecular Mechanisms, Physiological Function, and Role in Disease

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Ergothioneine is a natural thione antioxidant with significant biomedical potential. By reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cellular injury, ergothioneine may support interventions for aging‐related disorders, neurodegeneration, metabolic diseases, and skin protection.

Evidence for the Induction of Anxiolytic‐Like Behavior and Memory Preservation by (+)‐Dihydrocarvone Through Studies in Adult Zebrafish and In Sílico

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 8, August 2026.
(+)‐Dihydrocarvone exhibited anxiolytic‐like and memory‐preserving effects in adult zebrafish. Behavioral assays showed reduced anxiety and improved cognitive performance, while in silico docking revealed strong interactions with GABAergic and cholinergic targets. These findings suggest (+)‐dihydrocarvone as a promising neuroactive compound for anxiety

Effects of fenfluramine and sigma‐1‐dependent pharmacological and genetic modulation in a mouse kindling model

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 4292-4304, August 2026.
Abstract Objective Sigma‐1 is a chaperone protein that serves as a key homeostatic regulator, implicated in neuronal excitability and seizure control. Positive allosteric modulators offer a use‐dependent means to enhance Sigma‐1 activity, potentially with favorable tolerability compared to direct agonists.

Distinct patterns of electrical stimulation of the basolateral amygdala influence pentylenetetrazole seizure outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Our working hypothesis is that constant interpulse interval (IPI) electrical stimulation would resonate with endogenous epileptogenic reverberating circuits, inducing seizures, whereas a random interinterval electrical stimulation protocol would promote ...

Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and the risk of late onset epilepsy: A real‐world cohort study

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 7, Page 3444-3456, July 2026.
Abstract Objective Late onset epilepsy (LOE) is associated with substantial morbidity. Sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) may exert neuroprotective effects. This study evaluated the association between SGLT2i and risk of LOE among older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

KCNJ4 variants disrupt inward‐rectifier potassium channel function and cause refractory epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 6, Page 3199-3210, June 2026.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic basis, most frequently arising from ion channel dysfunction. Although multiple inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels have been implicated in epileptogenesis, the contribution of KCNJ4, which encodes the Kir2.3 channel, has not previously been established in human

Preparation and Evaluation of Carbamazepine Solid Lipid Nanoparticle for Alleviating Seizure Activity in Pentylenetetrazole-Kindled Mice

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Objectives: The study aimed to prepare carbamazepine in solid lipid nanoparticle form (CBZ-SLN) in order to enhance its anticonvulsant effect. Method: Eight formulations of CBZ-SLNs were prepared by homogenization and ultra-sonication techniques. Results:
