Summary: In the past 30 years, many new anti-seizure medicines have been developed for epilepsy treatment, but drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) still affects a significant percentage of patients. Current approaches to discovering new DRE treatments involve testing drugs in preclinical models that show varying degrees of drug resistance. Recent efforts have been made to include more relevant models in the evaluation of investigational drugs, to better understand DRE mechanisms and test new therapies. This review discusses the pharmacology of different epilepsy models and the challenges in identifying novel treatments.

Summary: Kainate receptors are involved in controlling neuronal excitability, modulating the release of neurotransmitters like GABA and glutamate, and regulating long- and short-term plasticity. Altered activity of these receptors is associated with various central nervous system diseases and disturbances.

Summary: This study investigated the expression and phosphorylation of the intracellular protein Tau in a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy. The results showed that although Tau expression levels had a modest reduction at two months post-seizure, they had returned to normal by four months. However, there was a significant decrease in phosphorylation levels at the S202/T205 locus. These findings suggest that Tau may play a different role in epilepsy compared to Alzheimer's disease.

Summary: During and after status epilepticus (SE), rat brain perfusion shows significant spatiotemporal changes with increased cortical perfusion initially, regional hypo-perfusion during the first convulsive seizure, and markedly decreased uptake 24 hours post-SE. Chronic epileptic animals exhibit regionally decreased perfusion affecting hippocampus and cortical sub-regions. Despite elevated energy and oxygen requirements, brain hypo-perfusion is present during SE, potentially contributing to neuronal damage, neuroinflammation, and chronic epilepsy following SE.

Summary: This study used an epilepsy mouse model and found that IRAK-M knockout exacerbated seizures and pathology, increased glutamatergic synaptic transmission, and induced microglial M1 polarization and inflammation. These findings suggest that IRAK-M dysfunction contributes to the progression of epilepsy through NMDARs.

Summary: The study investigated the modulatory effects of Vinpocetine (VNP) on neurobehavioral comorbidities via the mTOR signaling pathway in a lithium-pilocarpine (Li-Pil) rat model of seizures. VNP demonstrated a protective effect against Li-Pil-induced seizures and improved locomotor and cognitive abilities, while also exerting a neuroprotective action through inhibitory effects on hippocampal glutamate excitotoxicity, mTOR pathway, and inflammatory and apoptotic parameters.

Summary: The present experiments reveal the alterations of hippocampal neuronal populations in chronic epilepsy. The mice exhibited impaired learning and memory functions, decreased neuronal count, activated microglia, increased expression of certain neuropeptides, and reduced number of inhibitory neurons in the hippocampus. These findings shed light on the mechanisms underlying the hippocampal learning and memory deficits in epilepsy.

Summary: Mossy fiber sprouting is a characteristic of epilepsy and plays a key role in neural circuit formation. CRMP2, whose phosphorylation state regulates neurite/axon outgrowth, has been reported to change in epilepsy patients and animal models. This study provides direct evidence supporting the role of CRMP2 in mossy fiber sprouting in an animal model of epilepsy.

Summary: Kainate receptors (KARs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors that play important physiological roles in neuronal circuits, regulating EPSCs as post-synaptic receptors and controlling ion channels through non-canonical metabotropic actions. KARs, activated by endogenous glutamate, modulate neuronal circuit activity and plasticity under normal physiological conditions.

Summary: This study investigated the spatiotemporal characteristics of cortical activities underlying impaired visuospatial attention in idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) patients using an explainable machine-learning approach. A convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm was employed to discriminate cortical current source activities of iRBD patients from normal controls based on single-trial event-related potentials (ERPs). The findings revealed the relevant cortical regions and neural activity impairment associated with cognitive impairment in iRBD, which may contribute to the development of biomarkers for iRBD based on neural activity.

Summary: By comparing NMDARe-associated teratomas with non-encephalitic control teratomas, it was found that there were no significant differences in mutations between the two types of teratomas in terms of genomic analysis. Pathologic analysis revealed similar presence of neuronal tissue and lymphocytic infiltration between the two groups, but rituximab-naive encephalitic teratomas showed a higher frequency of germinal center formation.

Summary: In this study, the researchers used signal analysis to study the instantaneous amplitude and phase of sarcomeric oscillations in skeletal muscle. They identified two types of oscillations, sarcomeric oscillations and sarcosynced oscillations, and visualized their behavior during propagating waves. The researchers discovered the presence of sarcomeric defect holes and sarcomeric collision holes, which are important indicators for understanding the oscillation properties of sarcomeres. This finding has important implications for improving our understanding of muscle function and its regulatory mechanisms.

Summary: This study found that low expression of TP53INP2 is associated with poor survival in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. As the malignancy of CRC progresses, TP53INP2 expression gradually decreases. Knockdown of TP53INP2 promotes CRC cell proliferation and tumor growth. Mechanistically, TP53INP2 deficiency decreases phosphorylation of beta-catenin, leading to increased accumulation and enhanced nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity. Additionally, TP53INP2 sequesters TIM50, inhibiting its activation of beta-catenin. In conclusion, downregulation of TP53INP2 promotes CRC progression by activating beta-catenin.

Summary: Oligomeric enzymes are known for their higher catalytic rates compared to monomeric enzymes, but the extent of additivity in their activity is still not well understood. This study used tetrameric rabbit lactate dehydrogenase as a model to examine the kinetics of its catalytic action. Surprisingly, when the concentration of the limiting reactant exceeded that of a single subunit, there was a significant slowdown in the enzyme's conformational rearrangements.
