In the context of modeling epilepsy and neuropsychiatric comorbidities, we review the Wistar
Audiogenic Rat (WAR), first introduced to the neuroscience international community more …

Accumulating evidence from different animal models has contributed to the understanding of
the bidirectional comorbidity associations between the epileptic condition and behavioral …

This review summarizes the current knowledge about DBA/2 mice and genetically epilepsy-
prone rats (GEPRs) and discusses the contribution of such animal models on the …

The Wistar Audiogenic Rat (WAR) and the Genetic Audiogenic Seizure Hamster from
Salamanca (GASH/Sal) strains are audiogenic epilepsy models, in which seizures are …

Mixed forms of epilepsy in patients are often refractory. Therefore, animal models of
comorbid convulsive and nonconvulsive seizure are needed for experimental research …

The more recent history and main experimental data for the Krushinsky–Molodkina (KM)
audiogenic rat strain are presented. The strain selection started in late 1940. Now this strain …

Animal models of epilepsy are of great importance in epileptology. They are used to study
the mechanisms of epileptogenesis, and search for new genes and regulatory pathways …

The hamster has been previously described as a paroxysmal dystonia model, but our strain
is currently recognized as a model of audiogenic seizures (AGS). The original first epileptic …

Despite the many studies focusing on epilepsy, a lot of the basic mechanisms underlying
seizure susceptibility are mainly unclear. Here, we studied cellular electrical excitability, as …

Audiogenic epilepsy (AE), inherent to several rodent strains is widely studied as a model of
generalized convulsive epilepsy. The molecular mechanisms that determine the …
