A novel plasma biomarker for seizures?
Gasotransmitters are a relatively untapped therapeutic target in epilepsy. The carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, acetazolamide, is an approved antiseizure drug, and low levels of CO2 have been linked with asynchronous neuronal firing and higher seizure propensity. Nitric oxide is another critical signaling molecule that has undergone a high degree of scrutiny in epilepsy and other neurological Read More…
