Development of an antiseizure drug screening platform for Dravet syndrome at the NINDS contract site for the Epilepsy Therapy Screening Program

Chelsea D. Pernici et al.

Summary: Dravet syndrome is a rare but catastrophic genetic epilepsy, with majority of patients carrying a mutation in the SCN1A gene and currently lacking effective antiseizure drugs. Patients with DS often first present with febrile seizures, followed by generalized tonic-clonic seizures that can continue throughout life. The DS mouse model evaluated in this study showed refractoriness to most antiseizure drugs, except for a few that elevated seizure thresholds.

Ketogenic diet-mediated seizure reduction preserves CA1 cell numbers in epileptic Kcna1-null mice: An unbiased stereological assessment

Kristina A. Simeone et al.

Summary: The study provides evidence that metabolic therapies like the ketogenic diet may have a protective effect on reducing cell loss in the hippocampus of epileptic mice. This protection may involve mechanisms beyond just reducing seizure activity and could play a role in promoting or restoring hippocampal morphological integrity.
