The Effect of Low-Doses of Caffeine and Taurine on Convulsive Seizure Parameters in Rats
Behavioral Sciences, 2020 Introduction: Caffeine, an adenosine-receptor blocker, is believed to have neuronal excitatory effects, while Taurine, a mammalian amino acid, was shown to have neuroinhibitory effects.

Iron Deficiency Affects Seizure Susceptibility in a Time- and Sex-Specific Manner
ASN Neuro, 2017 Iron deficiency (ID) affects more than three billion people worldwide making it the most common micronutrient deficiency. ID is most prevalent during gestation and early life, which is of particular concern since its impact on the developing central ...

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 ...

Studies of dosage, seizure threshold, and seizure duration in ECT
Biological Psychiatry, 1987 Seizure threshold, defined as the minimal electrical dosage necessary to elicit adequate generalized seizure, was determined throughout the course of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in depressed patients randomly assigned to bilateral and right unilateral treatment, with brief pulse, constant current stimulation.
