Anti-convulsant effects of physical exercise and lipoic acid (LA), also referred to as thioctic acid with antioxidant activity, were investigated using chemical induced seizure model. We investigated the synergic effect of physical exercise and LA on kainic acid-induced seizure activity caused by
Impaired glucose transport across brain tissue barriers causes infantile seizures, developmental delay and acquired microcephaly. Since the first report in 1991 (De Vivo et al, NEJM, 1991) 17 patients have been identified with the glucose transporter protein syndrome (GTPS). The diagnostic feature
