Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacological inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway suppresses acquired epilepsy

TL;DR: The mTOR pathway was examined in rats that had already developed chronic spontaneous seizures in a pilocarpine model and it was found that mTOR is aberrantly activated in brain tissues from rats with chronic seizures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noninflammatory Changes of Microglia Are Sufficient to Cause Epilepsy.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that elevated mTOR signaling in mouse microglia leads to phenotypic changes, including an amoeboid-like morphology, increased proliferation, and robust phagocytosis activity, but without a significant induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infant botulism: two recent cases and literature review.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the literature regarding infant botulism in the United States is presented, wherein the pathophysiology, clinical features, epidemiology, and treatment are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Core elements of epilepsy diagnosis and management: expert consensus from the Leadership in Epilepsy, Advocacy, and Development (LEAD) faculty.

TL;DR: The core elements of epilepsy management identified here suggest minimum standards that can be used across all settings to improve consistency and quality of epilepsy diagnosis and care.
Journal ArticleDOI

The national temporal lobectomy survey

TL;DR: The data show that the neurological community currently does not have consistent definitions and practices in the management of pharmacoresistant epilepsy, and there appears to be need for developing a unified approach.
