Seizures and failures in the giant fiber pathway of Drosophila bang-sensitive paralytic mutants.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 1 Aug 1995

Pavlidis P, Tanouye M A

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila bang-sensitive paralytic mutants suffer from hyperactivity and paralysis following a mechanical shock; after recovery from paralysis, they cannot be paralyzed for a refractory period lasting up to 1 hr. Previously, we have shown that in easily shocked (eas), a typical bang-sensitive mutant, electrical shocks delivered to the brain cause seizure-like activity in the dorsal longitudinal flight motor...
