Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

Anterior cingulate cortex neuron subtypes differentially regulate seizures
Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the regulatory roles of distinct neuronal subtypes within the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in acute seizures and to identify cell type‐specific mechanisms underlying seizure modulation in this region. Methods Acute seizure models were established in mice via pentylenetetrazol injection.

β‐Hydroxybutyrate reduces neuronal excitability via GIRK channels
β‐Hydroxybutyrate decreases neuronal excitability by activating GIRK channels through HCAR2 signaling, providing a cellular mechanism that may contribute to the antiseizure effects of the ketogenic diet. Abstract Objective The ketogenic diet is used to treat drug‐resistant epilepsy, yet the molecular mechanisms coupling metabolic state to seizure ...

Neonatal seizures and GABAergic drugs: Scylla and Charybdis?
Abstract Neonates have a high incidence of seizures that are frequently difficult to control with conventional first‐line anti‐seizure medications, which are gamma‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) agonists. The reasons for this clinical problem are multifold but are likely related to the unique physiology of the immature nervous system. Specifically, the early
