Postnatal expression of thalamic GABAA receptor subunits in the stargazer mouse model of absence epilepsy.

Abstract excerpt

Absence seizures are known to originate from disruptions within the corticothalamocortical network; however, the precise underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms that induce hypersynchronicity and hyperexcitability are debated and likely to be complex and multifactorial. Recent studies implicate impaired thalamic GABAergic inhibition as a common feature in multiple animal models of absence epilepsy, including...
