Influence of N-Phthaloyl GABA on the Circadian Rhythms of Lipid Peroxidation and Antioxidants in Wistar Rats under Constant Light

N-Phthaloyl GABA was administrated daily (50 mg/Kg body weight-i.p) to Wistar rats for 21 days and circadian rhythms of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and antioxidants such as reduced glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were studied under constant light (LL) conditions. Delayed acrophase of TBARS and advanced acrophase of antioxidants (GSH, CAT and ...

CeA-RVMM serotonergic circuits and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy

Consensus exists on the importance of neural circuit in affecting the clinical outcome after sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). There is growing evidence that the serotonergic neuronal networks have a well-established role in SUDEP. Much progress has been made in our understanding of SUDEP since the seminal experiments of neural circuits. Future studies are that CeM-RVMM serotonergic ...

Explaining the unexplained; expecting the unexpected: where are we with sudden unexpected death in epilepsy?

Sudden death is over 20 times more frequent in people with epilepsy than the general population. The literature on clinical risk factors is now able to define individuals at the highest risk. Despite these advances in our understanding of risk, the mechanism of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy remains elusive. While it is unlikely that a single mechanism will be found to explain all deaths, ...
