Antiseizure potency and neurotoxicity of the enantiomers of fenfluramine and norfenfluramine in rats and correlations with their concentrations in plasma and brain

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Based on the evidence that fenfluramine‐induced anorexia, weight loss, and cardiovascular toxicity are primarily mediated by the d‐enantiomers of fenfluramine and its metabolite norfenfluramine, we investigated pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic correlations for the active enantiomers of fenfluramine and norfenfluramine in the rat ...

A rare presentation of escitalopram overdose-induced bradycardia and arrhythmia in a patient with severe depression

open access: yesTelangana Journal of Psychiatry
Escitalopram is the most commonly used selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. Escitalopram toxicity leads to serotonin syndrome, seizures, and cardiac side effects which include QTc prolongation, arrhythmias, and bradycardia.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Black Cohosh Interactions with Prescription Medications Associated with Serotonin Toxicity and Rhabdomyolysis: A Case Report.

open access: yes
BACKGROUND: Serotonin toxicity is a well-described phenomenon that is commonly attributed to a variety of drug-drug combinations. Some unregulated herbal supplements have been implicated in the onset of serotonin toxicity, however, there is currently ...

Factors contributing to serotonin toxicity

open access: yes
Serotonin toxicity is caused by an excess of the chemical serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in the synaptic cleft. The signs and symptoms of toxicity result from the action of serotonin on the receptors, particularly the 5-HT2A receptors, and ...

Ketogenic diet for infantile epileptic spasms

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Approximately half of all cases of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) do not respond to vigabatrin and hormonal therapies. There is no clear consensus as to the second‐line therapy for IESS. Ketogenic diet (KD) has emerged as an effective treatment for certain drug‐resistant epilepsies and in many cases of IESS.

Serotonin Enhances Beta-Endorphin Secretion to Lower Plasma Glucose in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats

open access: yes, 2008
Although serotonin, serotonin uptake inhibitors and serotonin precursors (including tryptophan or 5- hydroxytryptophan) are known to have hypoglycemic action in rodents or human, it is not clear whether serotonin has hypoglycemic effect in streptozotocin-

The gut microbiome and drug‐resistant epilepsy: Microbiome–antiseizure medication interactions and implications for pharmacoresistance

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one‐third of patients with epilepsy and represents a major unmet clinical need. While traditional hypotheses of pharmacoresistance have focused on alterations in drug targets, efflux transporter overexpression, and intrinsic disease severity, the gut microbiome has recently emerged as a ...
