Seizures in a Bang-Sensitive Epilepsy Model Impact Associative Learning in <i>Drosophila</i> Larvae

2025-08-24

Abstract excerpt

The seizures associated with epilepsy in humans may impact their learning and memory, however, the mechanism of how the seizures themselves lead to these deficits is not clear. Drosophila mutant flies that have seizure phenotypes have been used effectively as a model for human epilepsy. In this study, we tested whether stimuli that induce seizures in Drosophila para bss mutants, a mutation in the fly sodium chan...
