Parkinson's disease is an incurable progressive neurological condition caused by a degeneration of dopamine-producing cells characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. The major mechanisms of the antiepileptic actions of ZNS are inhibition of voltage-gated Na(+) channel, T-type voltage-sensitive Ca(2+) channel
To understand the pathomechanism and pathophysiology of autosomal dominant sleep-related hypermotor epilepsy (ADSHE), we studied functional abnormalities of glutamatergic transmission in thalamocortical pathway from reticular thalamic nucleus (RTN), mediodorsal thalamic nucleus (MDTN) to orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) associated with S286L-mutant α4β2-nicotinic
