}Understanding the role of different neuronal populations in the evolution of epileptic activity remains a major goal for epilepsy research. Physiological neuronal networks may become hyperexcitable if they tip over some apparent threshold level of excitation, or below some threshold level of inhibition, although this process, termed ictogenesis is not understood. This hyperexcitable state of the network underlies the pathological condition of epilepsy. Clinical evidence suggests strongly that…

Most strategies for development of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) center around seizure models that are known to respond to presently marketed AEDs, butEpilepsy induced alterations in the interaction between the EC and the hippocampus may lead to alterations that facilitate precipitation of seizures.

The dentate granule cells exhibit aberrant migration in the dentate hilus via enhanced excitatory GABAA receptor (GABAA‐R) signaling, which results in granule cell ectopia that persists into adulthood and is associated with spontaneous limbic seizures in adulthood.

It is concluded that NMDA receptor activation is not solely responsible for the neuronal pathology resulting as a consequence of epileptiform discharge, and coapplication of antagonists of both non‐NMDA and NMDA receptors strongly reduced the degeneration induced by the convulsants.

It is reported that paroxysmal depolarization shifts can be initiated by release of glutamate from extrasynaptic sources or by photolysis of caged Ca2+ in astrocytes, and this finding identifies astroCytes as a proximal target for the treatment of epileptic disorders.
