Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that is known to occur spontaneously in association with specific and non-specific viral illnesses and after vaccination against various pathogens. Although it is often a
Infection of C57BL/6 mice by the intracerebral route with the Daniels (DA) strain of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) resulted in acute behavioral seizures in approximately 50% of the mice. By titration, the viral dose correlated with the percentage of mice developing seizures;
Central nervous system infections can underlie the development of epilepsy, and Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) infection in C57BL/6J mice provides a novel model of infection-induced epilepsy. Approximately 50-65% of infected mice develop acute, handling-induced seizures during the
C57BL/6J mice infected with Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) develop acute behavioral seizures in the first week of infection and later develop chronic epilepsy. The TMEV model provides a useful platform to test novel antiseizure therapeutics. The present study was BACKGROUND
Little is known about the incidence and characteristics of acute epileptic seizures in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein encephalomyelitis (MOG-EM) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). In this study, we compared the incidence and characteristics of acute epileptic
Selective depletion of central nervous system norepinephrine (NE) by the neurotoxin 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) in rats subsequently inoculated with myelin basic protein (MBP) and complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) produced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) without the usual expected
Male Wistar rats were exposed to electroconvulsive shock (ECS) and pentylentetrazol (PTZ) for a period of 38 consecutive days; 21 days before and 17 days after immunization with guinea pig spinal cord in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) ECS and PTZ completely prevented the appearance of paralysis
Limbic seizures (forepaw clonus) were induced in Lewis rats by subcutaneous injections of lithium (3 mEq/kg) followed 24 h later by a muscarinic agent. Either 7 days before, 7 days after, or on the day of seizures, rats were inoculated with a spinal cord preparation. Other groups received these
We examined metallothionein (MT)-induced neuroprotection during kainic acid (KA)-induced excitotoxicity by studying transgenic mice with MT-I overexpression (TgMT mice). KA induces epileptic seizures and hippocampal excitotoxicity, followed by inflammation and delayed brain damage. We show for the
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to assess the risk of intracranial pathology requiring immediate intervention among children presenting with their first complex febrile seizure (CFS).
METHODS
This is a retrospective cohort review of patients 6 to 60 months of age evaluated in a pediatric
Viral infection of the central nervous system can result in encephalitis. About 20% of individuals who develop viral encephalitis go on to develop epilepsy. We have established an experimental model where virus infection of mice with Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) leads to acute
Anti-MOG encephalomyelitis is a recently described demyelinating, autoimmune disease of the central nervous system, identified by antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG).A previously healthy 20-year-old woman was admitted to hospital Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus infection of C57BL/6 mice results in acute behavioral seizures in 50% of the mice. Treatment of infected mice with minocycline or infection of interleukin (IL)-6-deficient chimeric mice results in a significant decrease in the number of mice developing
To identify predictors of epilepsy and clinical relapses in children presenting with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM).Children presenting with ADEM between 2005 and 2017 and tested clinically for MOG-Ab were identified from three tertiary
