Gene Therapy for Epilepsy: Resculpturing Synaptic Transmission with Neuropeptides
Recombinant adeno-associated viral (rAAV) vector-induced neuropeptide Y (NPY) overexpression in the hippocampusexerts powerful antiepileptic and antiepileptogenic effects in rats. Suchgene therapy approach could be a valuable alternative for developingnew antiepileptic treatment strategies. Future clinical progress, how-ever, requires more detailed evaluation of possible sid...
متن کاملDifferential Effect of Neuropeptides on Excitatory Synaptic Transmission in Human Epileptic Hippocampus.
Development of novel disease-modifying treatment strategies for neurological disorders, which at present have no cure, represents a major challenge for today's neurology. Translation of findings from animal models to humans represents an unresolved gap in most of the preclinical studies. Gene therapy is an evolving innovative approach that may prove useful for clinical applications. In animal m...
متن کاملNew roles for astrocytes: regulation of synaptic transmission.
Abstract Although glia often envelop synapses, they have traditionally been viewed as passive participants in synaptic function. Recent evidence has demonstrated, however, that there is a dynamic two-way communication between glia and neurons at the synapse. Neurotransmitters released from presynaptic neurons evoke Ca2+ concentration increases in adjacent glia. Activated glia, in turn, release ...
متن کاملCoxsackievirus B transmission and possible new roles for extracellular vesicles.
Coxsackievirus B1, a member of the Picornaviridae family is a non-enveloped single-stranded RNA virus associated with human diseases including myocarditis and pancreatitis. Infection of the intestinal mucosa, lined by polarized epithelial cells, requires interaction of coxsackievirus with apically located DAF (decay-accelerating factor) before transport to the basolaterally located CAR (coxsack...
متن کاملThe effect of ketamine on synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in CA1 area of rat hippocampal slices
The effect of ketamine (1-100 µM), which has NMDA receptor antagonist properties, on synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation (LTP) in CAl area of rat hippocampus was examined in vitro. Field potentials were recorded in pyramidal cell layer following Schaffer collateral stimulation. Primed-burst stimulation (PEs) was used for induction of LTP. The amplitude of population spiks (PS) was ...
