Previous studies have shown that the expression of the neuropeptide galanin in the
hippocampus is altered by seizures and that exogenous administration of galanin into the …

The neuropeptide galanin has been implicated in inhibiting seizures and protecting
hippocampal neurons from excitotoxic injury. In the hippocampus galanin acts through two …

Galanin is a neuroendocrine peptide involved in the regulation of feeding, pain, sexual
behavior, learning, and memory. The recent discovery, that galanin antagonized excitatory …

The neuropeptide galanin has been shown to suppress epileptic seizures. In cortical and
hippocampal areas, galanin is normally mainly expressed in noradrenergic afferents. We …

We examined the role of hippocampal galanin in an animal model of status epilepticus (SE).
Control rats showed abundant galanin-immunoreactive (Gal-IR) fibers in the dentate hilus …

The shift in the balance between the inhibition and the excitation in favor of the latter is a
major mechanism of the evolvement of epileptic seizures. On the neurotransmitter level two …

It has been well established that galanin is a potent endogenous anticonvulsant peptide.
However, the role of galanin receptor subtypes in mediating anticonvulsant effects of the …

Abstract Galanin, a 29‐or 30‐amino acid neuropeptide, has been implicated in the
modulation of seizures. In this study, we constructed a recombinant adeno‐associated viral …

The neuropeptide galanin exhibits anticonvulsant effects in experimental epilepsy. Two
galanin receptor subtypes, GalR1 and GalR2, are present in the brain. We examined the …

Neuroanatomical localization and physiological properties of galanin suggest that the
peptide may be involved in the regulation of seizures. Indeed, administration of galanin …
