The burden of the postictal state in epilepsy: A prospective, single‐center observational cohort study

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective The postictal state is a major yet underrecognized component of the epilepsy burden. We aimed to develop a structured patient‐reported instrument to quantify postictal recovery, characterize its multidimensional burden, and identify demographic, clinical, psychiatric, and treatment‐related factors associated with postictal severity ...

Table_2_Connectivity Mapping Using a Novel sv2a Loss-of-Function Zebrafish Epilepsy Model as a Powerful Strategy for Anti-epileptic Drug Discovery.xlsx

open access: yes, 2022
Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A) regulates action potential-dependent neurotransmitter release and is commonly known as the primary binding site of an approved anti-epileptic drug, levetiracetam.

In Silico and In Vivo: Evaluating the Therapeutic Potential of Kaempferol, Quercetin, and Catechin to Treat Chronic Epilepsy in a Rat Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Recently, alternative therapies are gaining popularity in the treatment of epilepsy. The present study aimed to find out the antiepileptic potential of quercetin, catechin, and kaempferol.

Acute effects of anti‐seizure medications on network level dynamics: A systematic comparison using multielectrode arrays

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A multi‐electrode array (MEA) is a powerful extracellular recording technique for long‐term monitoring of neuronal network activity. In recent years, MEA‐based assays have been applied increasingly to evaluate drug efficacy and neurotoxicity, including the assessment of anti‐seizure medications (ASMs). However, systematic comparisons

Partial volume correction analysis for 11C-UCB-J PET studies of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2021
Purpose: 11C-UCB-J PET imaging, targeting synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A), has been shown to be a useful indicator of synaptic density in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Status epilepticus: Updates on mechanisms and treatments

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) consists of prolonged, self‐sustaining seizures and is a common neurological emergency that causes respiratory compromise and neuronal injury. Without prompt treatment, the seizures can become resistant to benzodiazepines, leading to the progressive evolution of established, refractory, and super‐refractory SE.

Shared molecular pathways in pediatric genetic epilepsies: Insights from a single‐center cohort of 80 patients

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic epilepsies in childhood are highly heterogeneous, and approaches to identify shared biological mechanisms across distinct genetic etiologies remain limited. We aimed to investigate whether genes associated with pediatric genetic epilepsies in our heterogeneous cohort converge on common functional pathways.

The synaptic vesicle protein SV2A is the binding site for the antiepileptic drug levetiracetam [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
Here, we show that the synaptic vesicle protein SV2A is the brain binding site of levetiracetam (LEV), a new antiepileptic drug with a unique activity profile in animal models of seizure and epilepsy. The LEV-binding site is enriched in synaptic vesicles, and photoaffinity labeling of purified synaptic vesicles confirms that it has an apparent ...

Synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2 A in serum is an ideal biomarker for early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy
Background Previous studies have demonstrated that early intervention was the best plan to inhibit the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), which relied on the discovery of early diagnostic biomarkers. In this study, synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2 A

Synaptic vesicle protein 2A regulates mossy fiber sprouting in a drug-resistant epilepsy rat model via laminin α5/integrin β1

open access: yesBrain Research Bulletin
Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) is frequently characterized by pathological mossy fiber sprouting (MFS), which is a defining indicator of aberrant synaptic remodeling within the hippocampus.
