Neocortical Posttraumatic Epileptogenesis.
Epilepsia. 2010: 30
Development of new excitatory connectivity and decreases in GABAergic inhibition are mechanisms underlying posttraumatic epileptogenesis in animal models. Experimental strategies that interfere with these processes, applied between the trauma andseizure onset, are antiepileptogenic in the laboratory, and have promise for prophylaxis of epileptogenesis after cortical injury in man.
