Targets for preventing epilepsy following cortical injury.

Abstract:

:Prophylaxis of posttraumatic epilepsy will require a detailed knowledge of the epileptogenic pathophysiological processes that follow brain injury. Results from studies of experimental models and human epilepsy highlight alterations in GABAergic interneurons and formation of excessive new excitatory synaptic connectivity as prominent targets for prophylactic therapies. Promising laboratory results suggest that it will be possible to experimentally modify these aberrant processes and interfere with epileptogenesis. However, a number of key issues must be addressed before these results can be used to frame clinical antiepileptogenic therapy.

  • Antiepileptic effect of electroacupuncture vs. vagus nerve stimulation in the rat thalamus.

    abstract::Our previous study has shown that both electroacupuncture (EA) and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) can inhibit cortical epileptiform activities induced by pentylenetetrazole (PTZ). The current study compared the effects of EA and VNS on thalamic neuronal responses to PTZ-induced epileptiform activities. Under general an...
