An excitatory loop with astrocytes contributes to drive neurons to seizure threshold.

An excitatory loop with astrocytes contributes to drive neurons to seizure threshold.

Seizures in focal epilepsies are sustained by a highly synchronous neuronal discharge that arises at restricted brain sites and subsequently spreads to large portions of the brain. Despite intense experimental research in this field, the earlier cellular events that initiate and sustain a focal seiz...
