New insights into epileptic spasm generation and treatment from the TTX animal model

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Currently, we have an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms underlying infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS). However, over the past decade, significant efforts have been made to develop IESS animal models to provide much‐needed mechanistic information for therapy development.

The upside of epilepsy: Theories of an evolutionary paradox

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The persistence of common, heritable conditions, like epilepsy, that are associated with reduced reproductive fitness is an evolutionary paradox. Endogenous analgesic, anti‐depressant, and inflammatory mechanisms able to repair compromised functions can offer advantages in unexpected crises.

Pathways to Progressive Disability in Multiple Sclerosis: The Role of Glial Cells in Chronic CNS Inflammation

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common non‐infectious inflammatory CNS disease, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and focal demyelinated lesions. Traditionally considered an autoimmune disease, MS is driven by the immune system's attack on CNS myelin, resulting in cumulative disability.

Impaired Volume Regulation and Electrophysiology of Astrocytes In Situ in a Mouse Model for Megalencephalic Leukoencephalopathy With Subcortical Cysts

open access: yesGlia, EarlyView.
Cell culture studies show disrupted astrocyte physiology in the leukodystrophy MLC. Are intact astrocytes similarly affected? This study on astrocytes in MLC mouse brain slices confirms and extends in vitro studies on altered astrocyte physiology. ABSTRACT Electrical signaling, driven by ion fluxes between intra‐ and extracellular compartments, is ...
