Optogenetic Low-Frequency Stimulation of Principal Neurons, but Not Parvalbumin-Positive Interneurons, Prevents Generation of Ictal Discharges in Rodent Entorhinal Cortex in an In Vitro 4-Aminopyridine Model
Low-frequency electrical stimulation is used to treat some drug-resistant forms of epilepsy. Despite the effectiveness of the method in suppressing seizures, there is a considerable risk of side effects. An optogenetic approach allows the targeting of specific populations of neurons, which can incre...
