Multimodal electrophysiological analyses reveal that reduced synaptic excitatory neurotransmission underlies seizures in a model of NMDAR antibody-mediated encephalitis
Sukhvir Wright et al. present a NMDAR antibody-induced model of encephalitis in rats and use in vitro, in vivo, and in silico electrophysiology to examine alterations in neural circuit behavior. Their results suggest that reduction of NMDARs leads to increased excitability and seizure activity, and...

| Résumé: | Sukhvir Wright et al. present a NMDAR antibody-induced model of encephalitis in rats and use in vitro, in vivo, and in silico electrophysiology to examine alterations in neural circuit behavior. Their results suggest that reduction of NMDARs leads to increased excitability and seizure activity, and highlights the potential use of receptor-specific treatments in antibody-mediated seizures and epilepsy. |
