Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is defined as a sudden, unexpected, non-
traumatic, non-drowning death in a person with epilepsy. SUDEP is generally considered to …

Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder characterized by hyperexcitability in the brain.
Its pathogenesis is classically associated with an imbalance of excitatory and inhibitory …

Kv1. 1 containing potassium channels play crucial roles towards dampening neuronal
excitability. Mice lacking Kv1. 1 subunits (Kcna1−/−) display recurrent spontaneous seizures …

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of death among
patients with refractory epilepsy. While the exact etiology of SUDEP is unknown, mounting …

Slow rocking chairs can easily put people to sleep, while violent shaking, such as during
earthquakes, may lead to rapid awakening. However, the influence of external body …

Epilepsy is an umbrella term used to define a wide variety of seizure disorders and sudden
unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the leading cause of death in epilepsy. Although …

Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is typically unwitnessed but can
be preceded by seizures in the period prior to death. Peri‐ictal respiratory dysfunction is a …

Objective Increased understanding of the role of cortical structures in respiratory control may
help the understanding of seizure‐induced respiratory dysfunction that leads to sudden …

Aims Epilepsy, frequently comorbid with depression, easily develops drug resistance. Here,
we investigated how dorsal raphe (DR) and its 5‐HTergic neurons are implicated in …

The raphe nuclei comprise nearly all of 5-hydroxytryptaminergic (5-HTergic) neurons in the
brain and are widely acknowledged to participate in the modulation of neural …
