A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

The involvement of GABA-rho receptors in regulating ethanol-induced elevation of dopamine, glycine and taurine within the nucleus accumbens of Wistar rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
IntroductionAlcohol use disorder (AUD) causes significant morbidity and mortality globally. Ethanol’s rewarding and reinforcing effects are attributed to activation of the mesolimbic dopamine system, increasing accumbal dopamine release. While activation

Micronutrient Status in Children Suffering From Anorexia Nervosa: A Cohort of 349 Patients in a Referral Center for Eating Disorders

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a serious illness in which more than half of all deaths are due to malnutrition. Critically low energy and protein intake are known causes of massive weight loss, whereas micronutrient deficiencies due to a low‐calorie food pattern remain poorly characterized in children with AN. Micronutrient deficiencies in

Clinical utility and genetic landscape of exome sequencing in a large pediatric epilepsy cohort: Insights from a Turkish tertiary care center

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the diagnostic utility and genetic spectrum of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) in a large, well‐phenotyped cohort of Turkish pediatric patients with epilepsy of unknown etiology. Methods Between January 2021 and December 2024, 250 children (115 female, 135 male) with unexplained epilepsy underwent either whole‐exome ...

Exploring the efficacy and safety of perampanel in epilepsia partialis continua: A case series

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) is a form of focal motor status epilepticus (SE), which is commonly drug‐resistant requiring treatment with multiple antiseizure medications (ASM). There are no established guidelines for pharmacological management.

Ranking of antiseizure medications in a panel of focal seizure models predicts their comparative efficacy in clinical add‐on trials in drug‐resistant focal epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Most antiseizure medications (ASMs) have been discovered by testing in animal models, which are generally thought to predict antiseizure activity in patients. However, it is not known whether any of these models (or a combination of models) can predict whether a novel ASM exhibits higher clinical efficacy in focal drug‐resistant ...

CaMKIIβ insufficiency disrupts cortical networks, producing aberrant low‐gamma oscillations and seizure susceptibility

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Pathogenic variants in the calcium/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II B gene (CAMK2B) have been associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, including epilepsy, yet the mechanisms underlying cortical dysfunction remain largely unclear.

Compound heterozygous SLC12A5 variants expand the molecular and functional spectrum of KCC2‐developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Overview of the multimodal experimental approach integrating clinical, genetic, in silico, and in vitro investigations. Clinical: Representative EEG recording setup and ictal traces from affected patients. Genetic: Pedigrees for Families A and B highlighting the inheritance of the four identified SLC12A5 variants (A1, A2, B1, B2).

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

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
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.

Plasticity of GABAB receptor-mediated heterosynaptic interactions at mossy fibers after status epilepticus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Several neurotransmitters, including GABA acting at presynaptic GABAB receptors, modulate glutamate release at synapses between hippocampal mossy fibers and CA3 pyramidal neurons.
