Repetitive low-frequency stimulation reduces epileptiform synchronization in limbic neuronal networks.
Deep-brain electrical or transcranial magnetic stimulation may represent a therapeutic tool for controlling seizures in patients presenting with epileptic disorders resistant to antiepileptic drugs. In keeping with this clinical evidence, we have reported that repetitive electrical stimuli delivered at approximately 1 Hz in mouse hippocampus-entorhinal cortex (EC) slices depress the EC ability ...
متن کاملRepetitive Perforant-Path Stimulation Induces Epileptiform Bursts
46 47 The epileptic hippocampus has an enhanced propensity for seizure generation, but how 48 spontaneous seizures start is poorly understood. Using whole-cell and field-potential recordings, 49 this study explored whether repetitive perforant-path stimulation at physiological frequencies 50 could induce epileptiform bursts in dentate gyrus minislices from rats with kainate-induced 51 epilepsy....
متن کاملEpileptiform Activity Patterns in Coupled Neuronal Networks
We evaluate occurrence of seizure-like activity in computational network models based on the histology of mammalian cortex. In the simulations, seizure onset activity in a network (active patch) is connected to a larger patch of cells (passive patch). The following scenarios were investigated: (1) the activeand passive patches are contiguous with all connectivity intact; (2) active and passive ...
متن کاملThe effect of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the treatment of aphasia caused by cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
Background: Aphasia is a common outcome of Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) in which clinical interventions have limited effectiveness. Some evidence suggests that noninvasive stimulation of the brain can have beneficial effects in the treatment of CVA induced aphasia. In patients with motor aphasia, repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) is used to facilitate long-term improvement i...
متن کاملBlockade of in vitro ictogenesis by low-frequency stimulation coincides with increased epileptiform response latency.
Low-frequency stimulation, delivered through transcranial magnetic or deep-brain electrical procedures, reduces seizures in patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy. A similar control of ictallike discharges is exerted by low-frequency electrical stimulation in rodent brain slices maintained in vitro during convulsant treatment. By employing field and "sharp" intracellular recordings, we analyz...
