Incomplete resection of the icEEG seizure onset zone is not associated with post-surgical outcomes [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Delineation of seizure onset regions from EEG is important for effective surgical workup. However, it is unknown if their complete resection is required for seizure freedom, or in other words, if post-surgical seizure recurrence is due to incomplete removal of the seizure onset regions. Retrospective analysis of icEEG recordings from 63 subjects (735

The importance of early immunotherapy in patients with faciobrachial dystonic seizures. [PDF]
, 2018 Faciobrachial dystonic seizures and limbic encephalitis closely associate with antibodies to leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1). Here, we describe 103 consecutive patients with faciobrachial dystonic seizures and LGI1 antibodies to understand ...

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.
