K+-Channel Openers Suppress Epileptiform Activities Induced by 4-Aminopyridine in Cultured Rat Hippocampal Neurons
K+ channels are key modulators of neuronal excitability, and mutations in certain types of these channels are known to cause epileptic seizures. Activation of K+ channels is reported to suppress epileptic discharge; however, the types of K+-channel openers that are most effective as anti-epileptic a...
