Journal ArticleDOI

Correlation of transcriptome profile with electrical activity in temporal lobe epilepsy.

TL;DR: It is concluded that abnormal electrical brain activity in the spiking samples is strongly correlated with gene expression changes and some of the observed transcriptome changes may be directly involved in the induction or prevention of the ictal events seen in epilepsy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microanatomy of the dysplastic neocortex from epileptic patients

TL;DR: The results suggest that cortical dysplasia leads to multiple changes in excitatory and inhibitory synaptic circuits, and the possible relationship between these alterations and epilepsy is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Demonstration of glutamate-positive axon terminals forming asymmetric synapses in cat neocortex.

TL;DR: Electron microscopic examination of sections immunocytochemically processed with an anti-glutamate serum reveals that many asymmetric synapses in the cat neocortex contain elevated levels of immunodetectable glutamate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synaptic Connections of Calretinin-Immunoreactive Neurons in the Human Neocortex

TL;DR: The results indicate that different subpopulations of CR interneurons exist that are specialized for selective innervation of somatic or dendritic regions of certain pyramidal and nonpyramidal neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parvalbumin immunoreactivity reveals layer IV of monkey cerebral cortex as a mosaic of microzones of thalamic afferent terminations.

TL;DR: Correlative observations in the present and other studies indicate that the aggregations of PV-immunoreactive terminals forming asymmetric synapses arise from thalamic afferent fibers while those forming symmetric synapse arise from intrinsic gamma-aminobutyric acid neurons.
