ROSIGLITAZONE SUPPRESSES IN VITRO SEIZURES IN HIPPOCAMPAL SLICE BY INHIBITING PRESYNAPTIC GLUTAMATE RELEASE IN A MODEL OF TEMPORAL LOBE EPILEPSY.

Rosiglitazone Suppresses In Vitro Seizures in Hippocampal Slice by Inhibiting Presynaptic Glutamate Release in a Model of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.

Peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a nuclear hormone receptor whose agonist, rosiglitazone has a neuroprotective effect to hippocampal neurons in pilocarpine-induced seizures.Hippocampal slice preparations treated in Mg2+ free medium can induce ictal and interictal-like epileptiform discharges, which is regarded as an in
