Epilepsy, the most common neurological disorder, is characterized by seizures resulting from an imbalance between brain ...

Conclusions: Our results suggest that active neuroinflammation and marked cellular injury occur in pediatric epilepsy and may play a common pathogenic role or consequences in childhood epilepsy of ...

"Treating patients with epilepsy allows us to investigate the ... "Our study provides the first cellular evidence of how neurogenesis contributes to human cognition—in this case, verbal learning ...

Thirteen patients with chronic intractable epilepsy who underwent epilepsy surgery from January 2006 to June 2007 were included in order of operation (Table 1). Normal-appearing control cortex was ...

Our research aims at understanding the molecular basis of epilepsy syndromes through identification of the underlying defective genes, followed by functional analyses of the gene products and ...

Researchers have created mini-brains to study how mitochondrial failure impacts brain cells, opening new possibilities for ...

Researchers at the University of Bergen have used advanced stem cell technology to develop mini-brains, also called brain ...

"The mini-brains give us a unique opportunity to understand disease mechanisms at the cellular level and test potential ...

The authors have generated and characterized a new knock-in mouse with a pathogenic mutation found in patients to determine the synaptic and circuit mechanisms contributing to KCNC1-associated ...
