Interleukin-6, a mental cytokine
Almost a quarter of a century ago, interleukin-6 (IL-6) was discovered as an inflammatory cytokine involved in B cell differentiation. Today, IL-6 is recognized to be a highly versatile cytokine,… Expand

Validation of the Zebrafish Pentylenetetrazol Seizure Model: Locomotor versus Electrographic Responses to Antiepileptic Drugs
Zebrafish have recently emerged as an attractive in vivo model for epilepsy. Seven-day-old zebrafish larvae exposed to the GABAA antagonist pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) exhibit increased locomotor… Expand

White-Matter Astrocytes, Axonal Energy Metabolism, and Axonal Degeneration in Multiple Sclerosis
In patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), a diffuse axonal degeneration occurring throughout the white matter of the central nervous system causes progressive neurologic disability. The underlying… Expand

Seizure activity and changes in hippocampal extracellular glutamate, GABA, dopamine and serotonin
Increases in hippocampal extracellular neurotransmitter levels have consistently been observed during temporal lobe seizures in humans, but animal studies on this subject have yielded conflicting… Expand

Anticonvulsant action of hippocampal dopamine and serotonin is independently mediated by D2 and 5‐HT1A receptors
The present microdialysis study evaluated the anticonvulsant activity of extracellular hippocampal dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5‐HT) with concomitant assessment of the possible mutual interactions… Expand

Direct enhancement of hippocampal dopamine or serotonin levels as a pharmacodynamic measure of combined antidepressant–anticonvulsant action
The neurobiological relationships between epilepsy and depression are receiving increased experimental attention. A key role for limbic monoamines in depression has been established and we recently… Expand

Quantitative in Vivo Microdialysis Study on the Influence of Multidrug Transporters on the Blood-Brain Barrier Passage of Oxcarbazepine: Concomitant Use of Hippocampal Monoamines as Pharmacodynamic…
Various antiepileptic drugs were shown to be substrates for multidrug transporters at the level of the blood-brain barrier. These ATP-dependent efflux pumps actively limit brain accumulation of… Expand

Anticonvulsant action of GBR-12909 and citalopram against acute experimentally induced limbic seizures
We recently showed that intrahippocampally administered dopamine and serotonin exert concentration-dependent non-protective, protective and proconvulsant effects against limbic seizures in rats.… Expand

Hippocampal dopamine and serotonin elevations as pharmacodynamic markers for the anticonvulsant efficacy of oxcarbazepine and 10,11-dihydro-10-hydroxycarbamazepine
We recently showed that dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) exert anticonvulsant effects against limbic seizures in rats mediated by hippocampal D(2) and 5-HT(1A) receptor stimulation. For exogenously… Expand
