Role of Impaired Astrocyte Gap Junction Coupling in Epilepto-Genesis

2023-01-30

Abstract excerpt

The gap junction-coupled astroglial network plays a central role in the regulation of neuronal activity and synchronization, but its involvement in the pathogenesis of neuronal diseases is not yet understood. Here we present the current state of knowledge about the impact of impaired glial coupling in the development and progression of epilepsy and discuss whether astrocytes represent alternative therapeutic targe...
